Fantastic. Now, you need a giant squid. ShopShoe
You should convince the researchers at Woods Hole that they need turtles like yours to surreptitiously track sea turtles. Then sell them for $50K a copy; institutions are always paying sucker prices for specialty equipment. For an extra $10K mount a GoPro in the head so they can take pictures of the wildlife they annoy.
I have also seen them mount small video cameras to live animals for the same purpose...as I recall it was penguins so that they could see what they were doing under the antarctic ice in searching for food. Either way its an ingenious idea. Bill
