Endangered turtle freed from fishing net

An endangered green turtle stuck in fishing boat was rescued and set free again by the navy.

Rear Adm. Apakorn You­kongkaew, commander of the Naval Special Warfare Command, ordered forces to assist a 10-year-old turtle, which had become entangled in the net from a sunken fishing boat in Samae San.

Saved by beachgoers, the turtle was cut free by sailors and the turtle emerged uninjured. It was then set loose to go back into the sea.
