After working closely with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, and with funding provided by the zoo's primary non-profit support organization, Zoo Miami Foundation, Zoo Miami was able to construct a 1,600 sq. ft. facility that consists of five saltwater enclosures that will serve as "recovery beds" for up to 16 sea turtles that are brought to the facility for treatment.
This facility will be only the second Sea Turtle Hospital in Miami-Dade County.
