Sea Turtle Rescued from fishing line

A video has emerged of a group of people freeing a sea turtle caught in a fishing line in Port Aransas, Texas, US.

The footage, shot last month, shows the juvenile green sea turtle flapping around helplessly near the jetty with the fishing line restricting its movement.

A woman catches the turtle and takes it ashore where she and a man cut the line with a knife before freeing the creature back into the sea.
