Epileptic Sea Turtle in England gets MRI


Thought this was interesting. This poor turtle with epilepsy (her name is Snorkel) gets an MRI to try to find the cause of her seizures. The video has no narration, but there is a story below the "video screen". Snorkel gets same sort of anti-seizure meds as humans though they don't specify which one.

That was pretty neat. I really didn't think they did those types of things with animals, and I'd never think of it being done to a turtle.
