The fishermen who rescued her named her Yoshi and took her to the Two Oceans Aquarium in Cape Town, South Africa. She was rehabilitated there and grew stronger—and larger!—every day. She also became one of the most popular exhibits at the aquarium. After twenty years in captivity, Yoshi was released back into the ocean and traveled more than 25,000 miles in 1,003 days to find her way home. A tracking device on her shell transmitted data about her journey to marine biologists and turtle enthusiasts of all ages around the world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLindsay Moore’s gorgeous watercolor paintings enrich her moving, lyrical, and informative text.
