🌟🐢 Meet Bea: A Special Green Turtle 🐢🌟

We are beyond excited to officially register Bea, a unique green turtle whose distinct deformation makes her a symbol of resilience and strength in the wild. 💚

Bea was registered thanks to the incredible efforts of the @extra_divers_equinox team and the dedicated support of Stefanie Krieg. A special thanks goes to Janusz Buszkowski, whose contribution of the right materials finally made this registration possible. 🙌

Bea’s journey began in 2022 when she was first spotted at the @Shams Alam House Reef by observant divers Thomas Rhode and Miroslav Komatek, along with the staff of the @Wadi Gimal Dive Center. Their sightings paved the way for this long-awaited moment. 🌊

Bea’s story is one of survival and hope, reminding us of the resilience of marine life and the importance of working together to protect these incredible creatures. Every registered turtle brings us closer to understanding and safeguarding our oceans. 🐢✨

📸 Stay tuned for updates about Bea’s inspiring journey!
