Honolulu, Hawaii 96818 • (808) 725-5730 Fax: (808) 725-5567 Marine Turtle Strandings in the Hawaiian Islands a January – December 2014 Protected Species Division Turtle Research Program NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center Prepared by Devon Francke and TRP Staff January 2015 The Turtle Research Program* (TRP) documented 221 green turtle (Chelonia mydas), 8 hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), 1 olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea), 1 loggerhead (Caretta caretta), and 1 unknown sea turtle species stranding in the main Hawaiian Islands and Northwestern Hawaiian Islands from January 1 to December 31, 2014. Of the 221 green turtle strandings, 84 (38%) stranded alive and 137 (62%) stranded dead. Of the 84 live stranded green turtles, 39 (47%) were successfully treated and released, 13 (15%) returned to the water prior to TRP arrival, 31 (37%) died, and 1(1%) was of unknown dead or alive end status.

The State of Hawaii’s Division of Conservation and Resources Enforcement (DOCARE) cut free and released 4 of the turtles which were alive, but the fifth was found dead. A dead turtle was found on May 18, 2014, at Hilo (Wailoa Sampan Basin and Boat Harbor), Hawaii, with fishing line wrapped around both front flippers, the right hind flipper, entering into the mouth and extending down into the digestive tract and exiting the cloaca.
