A four-week old loggerhead hatchling, making a cameo appearance in the hatchling video below, recently had his flipper bandage removed. The little guy has not been able to be released yet because his broken humerus bone is still healing.

The green hatchling featured in this video is about 1-week old whereas the loggerhead is over 1-month old, still recovering from a broken flipper.
