Sounds bad, but ya know... cheeseheads... turtle heads.... people who like turtles? :puzzled:
Anyway sorry for the bad title but i came accross a cool pic and it really
struck me as something id see at the Jekyll turtle center! (Its happening in Kobe Japan however)
Tech can be pretty sweet!
He got some new flippers after a shark bite! Be afraid... he'll start flying soon

Cheesehead, what's that? Pretty cool pic! Turtle prosthetics....now all they
need to do is attach a GoPro to it's shell and we have "turtle cam".

Are they going to release him? If so what happens when he out grows his STS Super Turtle Suit?

It's like that movie dolphin tale.

Pretty sure that's a GPS on his back. They do that here at Jekyll Island Turtle Center

iirc they said they still have some work to do on the basic operation of it.... right now its just "on"
so they attatch it and off he goes (and can never stop) they havent figured out how to integrate the turtle into the flippers, so he can actually
stop if he wants to.
its a cool idea, but super terrifying in its current state
its the toyota of turtle limbs

the turtle cant stop? what about turning? hope the person with the remote doesn't have a mean streak.
