Just as SeaWorld brought attention to the plight of the manatee with the attraction "Manatee Rescue," which created interest that helped to save the species, TurtleTrek's 3D 360° theatre showcases the vulnerable sea turtle and asks everyday heroes across the globe to help make a difference in saving animals in the wild.

No animal's life journey is more incredible than that of the sea turtle. From hatching on a beach and making the mad dash to open waters to the dangers and hazards they face as they mature and return to the very same beach to lay their own eggs, their tales of life underwater have in the past been impossible to show. And no theme park in the world is better equipped than SeaWorld to share that journey with millions of people.

Now you can find out what it's like to "be a turtle" and learn about the incredible journey these amazing animals face throughout their lives. From a turtle's point of view, join NYAH™ the sea turtle and go on the epic journey to see the challenges and hardships faced to survive and make it back to the beach where you were hatched.

Florida's tropical waters are home to a great diversity of life and perhaps none are more rare and endearing than the manatee. Populations of all species of manatees have apparently declined over the past hundred years. These declines are due to such causes as hunting for their meat, destruction of their habitats, boating, pollution, and low reproduction rates. However, many organizations like SeaWorld are working hard to help restore the population of this great animal. SeaWorld is the global leader in the rescue and rehabilitation of manatees.
