TO GO WITH 'TUNISIA-ENVIRONMENT-OCEANS-TURTLE' REPORTAGE
A sea turtle recovers on a care barge in Tunisia's Kerkennah Island, the only one in the Mediterranean, on December 18, 2024. Harbouring netted enclosures underwater, the barge is used to treat injured loggerhead turtles, allowing the threatened species to receive care in saltwater, its natural habitat, and is the first floating rehabilitation centre for the species in the Mediterranean, organisers of the UN-funded project said.
