Two young loggerhead turtles, which were found washed up in the west Highlands in two separate incidents, are being released to the wild after being nursed back to health.
Loggerheads, which normally frequent the warmer waters off America, the Caribbean or the Mediterranean, are rare sights in Scotland. Only about two marine turtles a year have been found on Scottish beaches over the past 15 years, and these are usually the more common leatherbacks. http://news.scotsman.com/uk.cfm?id=791392007
