An endangered sea turtle may soon receive two prosthetic
flippers from Kawamura Gishi, Osaka prefecture, Japan’s largest
manufacturer of prosthetic limbs. The nonprofit Sea Turtle
Association of Japan told the AFP news service that it plans to fit
prosthetic front flippers to Yu-chan, a 30-in. loggerhead sea
turtle who lost her forelimbs in what her caregivers believe was a
shark attack. Yu-chan was rescued offthe southwest coast of Japan
last summer and sent to heal at the Hiwasa Chelonian
Museum-Caretta, an aquarium in Minami, Tokushima prefecture.
