Some jetskiers found a sick turtle and took it to safety

The jetskiers were on a tour when they saw the turtle

At first, they thought the turtle was just resting

But then they saw it was not moving and thought it was dead

The turtle was on Maud Bay beach on Magnetic Island

When they touched it, the turtle opened its eyes

It was clear the turtle was not healthy

The turtle's shell had blood and was peeling off

The jetskiers wanted to help the turtle

They got a special ski to take the turtle to safety

A little boy named the turtle 'Princess Peach'

The boy likes the game Mario, so he chose that name

It was hard to move the turtle because it was big

They finally got the turtle onto the ski

They took the turtle to a place where it could get help

The man who helped the turtle had helped another turtle before

He gave the other turtle to a hospital

The hospital said the new turtle was bigger than the last one

A woman is helping to take care of the turtle

The turtle is old, maybe 50 to 80 years old

The jetskiers learned about animals on their tour

The turtle is getting better, but they don't know what made it sick

The hospital tries to help turtles get better quickly

They want the turtles to stay wild

The turtle's tests are okay, and it's getting better

When the turtle is better, it will get a special tag

All turtles in Queensland get tags

The man is happy his customers helped the turtle

They care about the animals and the water on the island
