Nineteen\u00a0endangered sea turtles in Mississippi, all named after Taylor Swift <\/strong>songs, have been released back into the wild after they were treated for\u00a0hypothermia. Prior to their release, Mississippi Aquarium workers cut off each turtle’s\u00a0itty-bitty friendship bracelet<\/strong><\/a> with their name on it, which they’d been wearing through the rehab process.<\/p>\n

As\u00a0The Biloxi Sun-Herald<\/strong><\/em><\/a>\u00a0reports, the turtles’ names came from songs across Taylor’s entire catalog, including “22,” “Cardigan,” “Betty,” “All Too Well,” “Hey Stephen,” “The Alchemy,” “Mastermind,” “Love Story,” “Dress,” “Clean,” “The Bolter” and “Champagne Problems.”<\/p>\n

Each year Kemp’s ridley sea turtles \u2014 a critically endangered species \u2014 get “cold-stunned” by the frigid waters of New England and develop hypothermia-like symptoms. The aquarium rehabilitated the turtles at a cost of $500 each. This year all of the turtles were given Taylor Swift song names in an attempt to get the public interested in the program \u2014 and maybe even kick in a few bucks<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were hoping the Swifties would want to adopt their favorite turtle,\u201d said\u00a0Dr. Alexa Delaune<\/strong>, VP of veterinary services and research for the aquarium, said. “Or even, maybe, if Taylor Swift herself wanted to donate money we\u2019d call it the Taylor Swift Hospital for Turtles.\u201d<\/p>\n
