0:01:20 > 0:01:26What's even more amazing is that Olive Ridley turtles are usually

0:01:26 > 0:01:29found in warmer waters around Mexico and southern parts of the US.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31So, how did she end up off the coast of Wales,

0:01:59 > 0:02:08She's a real character, now we've got to know her.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10She is eating well, demolishing a couple of kilos a day.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17She's getting all the care she needs.

0:02:17 > 0:02:24A team of carers apply cream to her shell to stop it from drying out.

0:02:24 > 0:02:29Menai will be returned to Anglesey, then she will hopefully be

0:02:29 > 0:02:31enough to be released back into the wild.
