YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

When our crew found a sea turtle tangled in a fishing net, they stepped in to save it.

Our research vessel, OceanXplorer, had just kicked off an expedition in Indonesia.

This leg of the expedition was focused on geology and microbiology in northern Sumatra–searching for hydrothermal vents, mapping active faults and exploring underwater volcanoes. While the scientists were gathered in mission control, observing an ROV dive, the ship’s crew spotted he tangled turtle and leapt into action.
