GALVESTON, Texas (KBTX) - Texas A&M University at Galveston released sea turtles back to their natural habitat Thursday afternoon. Texas A&M Galveston's Gulf Center for Sea Turtle Research had been caring for the turtles for a few months and they were finally healthy enough to swim. Galveston residents lined up on the beach to see the turtles reunite with the water. 'I'm always blown away by the public interest in sea turtles. People really love them,' Gulf Center for Sea Turtle Research Director Christopher Marshall said.
