Hey ocean lovers! 🐢 Want to make a difference and help our sea turtle friends? Here's a quick tutorial on how to safely remove fishing line from a turtle's flipper:

1. **Approach Calmly**: Always approach the turtle slowly and from the side to avoid stress.
   
2. **Gather Tools**: Have scissors or line cutters ready. Ensure they’re clean to prevent infection.

3. **Secure the Turtle**: Gently hold the turtle, ensuring its head is above water. If possible, have a buddy help.

4. **Cut the Line**: Carefully snip the fishing line, avoiding the turtle’s skin. 

5. **Check for Injuries**: Look for any cuts or swelling. If severe, contact a marine vet immediately.

6. **Release Safely**: Once free, release the turtle back into the water, ensuring it's strong enough to swim.

Every small action helps protect our ocean friends! 🌊💙
