Rebel, a juvenile Kemps Ridley sea turtle missing one of its flippers who was just released by the Sea Turtle Rehabilitation at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, swims away in the water on the back side of Honeymoon Island. Rebel was found in the Egmont shipping channel in late May 2011 suffering from massive boat strike injuries to her left carapace (shell) and left flipper. Her flipper was so debilitated, amputation was necessary.
