At 10:06 in episode: Kylea mentions sea turtle strandings are lower than previous years. She is referring to 2022. The final stranding numbers for 2023 are higher than 2022. This further shows that numbers fluctuate every year so biologists look at the trends over several years before determining if there is an increase or decrease of overall sea turtle strandings -
