FLORIDA KEYS, Fla. (SBG) — Forty endangered sea turtles were transported to the Florida Keys for treatment after they suffered from "cold-stunning" in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, officials wrote on a Facebook page for The Florida Keys & Key West.

The Kemp's ridley sea turtles were given free flights to the Turtle Hospital in the Florida Keys by volunteers with Turtles Fly Too.
