Hey did you know that there's really no such fish as a sardine? Apparently it's more of a culinary grouping and most of what are sold as sardines are actually some kind of herring or sprat. Also the scientific name of the European sprat is Sprattus sprattus.

For IMMS intern Madison Yates, a standout moment from the summer involved releasing a turtle that she helped rescue and rehabilitate. A fisherman had snared the turtle near Ocean Springs, and Yates fielded the hotline call and helped get the animal back to IMMS for same-day testing and treatment.
