It has not even been more than a week for the release of Kemps ridley sea turtle dubbed Voldemort in the wild and it has come back to the Virginia Aquarium Marine Animal Care Center. The turtle had spent short time at the center after it was hooked at the Buckroe Fishing Pier in Hampton the weekend before.

Voldemort was hooked at the Naval Station Norfolk recreational fishing pier on July 4. The turtle was not a lucky one because this hook was much deeper than the superficial one it had before. After a call was received about the turtle, officials from the Virginia Aquarium went at the site and found it was the same turtle and it was back, explained Virginia Aquarium Senior Scientist Susan Barco.

It was found in an X-ray that the fishing hook went deep in Voldemort's throat. A surgery was performed on the turtle to safely remove the hook by Dr. Sean Back, a veterinarian with Beach Pet Hospital. The Stranding Response Team has rescued five turtles over the weekend and Voldemort is one of them.

"We're not sure whether there's a lot more turtles that are being hooked or if we are just finding out about all the turtles that are getting hooked", said Barco.

The turtle was hooked again in late June after it was released last Wednesday by the Virginia Aquarium Marine Animal Care Center. On Saturday, a rescue task was again performed for the turtle after it was hooked at the Norfolk Naval Station recreational fishing pier. The turtle is expected to recover soon as the hook has been surgically removed from its throat.
