Snooki the sea turtle settles into her new home
The Minnesota Zoo has a new resident with quite the story of perseverance. Snooki the Loggerhead Sea Turtle is not quite ready for her public debut, but she’s currently getting acclimated in a smaller pool connected to Shark Reef. She’s between 40 and 45 years old, weighs 310 pounds and has spent nearly a decade receiving rehabilitation care in North Carolina. She needed a bigger pool, and that’s what the Minnesota Zoo can provide. Her new home will be 50 times the size of her pool at the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center.
