I SPY ON THE SHORELINE
SUMMER 2019 / VOLUME 65
FROM THE PRESIDENT
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Few activities are as quintessentially American as a summer beach outing.
What begins as an almost ritualistic production – packing up the beach chairs and towels, slathering on the sunscreen, securing the kids in the backseat – pays off immediately with the first whiff of sea spray and the sounds of pounding surf.
It is well documented that proximity to the ocean can reduce stress. Author Wallace J. Nichols calls this sensation “blue mind,” and we humans intuitively seek it when we travel to the beach, visit the Aquarium or even take a bath.
As environmental stewards, we should also be mindful of how we can reduce the stress for other species. The various plastic bag and polystyrene bans along our coastline are wonderful examples of how communities can unite to minimize the impacts of human consumption on wildlife. Ideally, the beaches on our coast will be less polluted as a result, but we also encourage you to pick up the litter you find along the way and even document it with our Litter-free Digital Journal on our citizen science app (downloadable from Google Play and Apple Store).
To aid your next beach visit, be sure to check out the comprehensive article in this issue that highlights the many species you might find along the way. Want to learn more? Join one of the beach walks or seining programs we host throughout the summer.
Also in this issue, meet our Sea Turtle Care Center™ team and discover what led them to follow their passion and make sea turtle conservation a career. Summer is indeed sea turtle season in South Carolina, and be vigilant for signs of sea turtle activity and be respectful of the many protected nests you will likely find on our local beaches.
Our work in saving sea turtles and championing ocean conservation would not be possible without your membership. Thank you for joining us in our mission!

Saltmarsh Aviary to Reopen Soon
If you have visited the Aquarium over the past several months, you have noticed that our Saltmarsh Aviary has been closed for renovations, including having the mesh netting replaced. The Aquarium has been busy at work preparing for our animal friends to return to their exhibit at the Aquarium. New mulch and soil have been installed, along with a brand-new boardwalk for the birds. You may even notice that the mural has been touched up and there are some new wood steps in place. Keep your eye out for an official reopen date and plan a visit to check out the refreshed Saltmarsh Aviary!

Aquarium Eliminates Single-Use Plastic
Through the Aquarium Conservation Partnership (ACP), 22 aquariums across the nation committed to reducing single-use plastic by making environmental changes in their own institutions. In 2017, the Aquarium joined the ACP with a goal of eliminating single-use plastic straws, bags and beverage bottles from inside our walls by 2020. We accepted the challenge! First, plastic straws were replaced with metal or paper. Next, plastic bags were exchanged with a paper equivalent. Now, ten months ahead of our goal deadline, beverage bottles are only found in aluminum form at the Aquarium! We also installed refillable water stations and the Gift Shop stocked up on reusable bottles, bags and straws. Stop by during your next visit to see the stylish options available for purchase to reduce your single-use plastic.

LEGEND: MEMBERS ONLY / PUBLIC EVENT
I Spyon the Shoreline
Did you know horseshoe crabs are not actually crabs? Can you tell the difference between a skate and a stingray? Have you ever spotted an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin from the shore?
As warm weather returns to the Lowcountry, our members return to the shoreline. During the summer months, the Aquarium frequently receives inquiries from members, like you, about the animals they spot in the water or along the shore. Next time you venture to the beach, bring along this quick animal identification guide to help guide your exploration!
A Guide for BeachExploration

Animal Identification
Walk along the beach in the summertime, and you are likely to spot one of these prehistoric crawlers (or their molts) along the shoreline.
Horseshoe crabs are not crabs at all! In fact, they are more closely related to spiders and scorpions. You can find them mating and laying their eggs along the beaches in late spring and summer.
HORSESHOE CRAB Limulus polyphemus
Although live whelks live buried in the sand, whelk shells are most commonly found washed up on the beach during low tide and are usually inhabited by hermit crabs.
Many people misidentify these native sea snails as conchs, which are mostly found in tropical waters. Two of the most common types of whelks you may find along the South Carolina coast are lightning whelks and knobbed whelks.
WHELKBusycon spp.
You may spot skates swimming at the bottom of the water, hovering just above the sand.
Unlike the stingray, skates do not have a venomous barb on their tails, nor do they deliver live births! Instead, skates lay egg casings, commonly called “mermaids’ purses,” that are often found along the shoreline.
SKATE EGG CASINGChondrichthyes
Dig your feet a couple inches in the ocean sand, and you’ll be lucky to bump into one of these
well-known creatures!
Living sand dollars are hairy and dark in color, so be sure to
place them back in the water so they can survive! You may also spot sun-bleached and smooth sand dollars along the beach – although no longer living, they
are still very beautiful.
SAND DOLLARMellita quinquiesperforata
Cannonball jellyfish may be found alive, pulsating through the water, or no longer living and lying along the shoreline.
A group of jellies is called a smack, swarm or bloom.
Cannonball jellyfish are most commonly spotted midsummer. They feed on tiny zooplankton
and have a sting that most humans can’t feel!
CANNONBALL JELLYFISH
Stomolophus meleagris
Bring your flashlight because ghost crabs are typically found scurrying around the beach in
the late afternoon and at night-time. You will most often find
them in the dry, loose sand above the tideline.
Ghost crabs are burrow-dwellers, digging holes as
deep as four feet underground. Although they live on land,
ghost crabs will frequent the water to moisten their gills,
helping them better absorb oxygen.
GHOST CRABOcypode quadrata

Look out across the horizon. Do you see any curved fins appearing above the waves? Chances are you’ve spotted Atlantic bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). Dolphins are highly social animals – if you see one, there’s probably a few more just below the surface. Here in the Lowcountry, we have resident dolphins who live throughout our waterways year-round, as well as transient dolphins who are the tourists of the bunch!
Dolphins have an interesting “sixth sense” called echolocation. They communicate and search for prey by producing a series of whistles or sounds. When these sound waves come into contact with another animal or object underwater, they “echo” off of them. Dolphins can then use these echoes to determine shape, size and location of their prey.
Since echolocation helps them find food, sound is pretty important to dolphins. That’s why the Aquarium is involved in a research study that’s looking at how changes to sound in their environment might impact them in the long term. Through a previous population distribution study, the Aquarium determined six dolphin habitat “hotspots” in the Lowcountry. At these locations, we’ve deployed underwater acoustic devices called hydrophones that record the soundscape so we can evaluate how noise affects dolphins over time.
SEINING AND BEACH WALK PROGRAMSWant to learn more about the swimming, crawling and floating creatures that share the shoreline with us? From June to September, the Aquarium offers a series of seining and beach walk programs to allow hands-on nature exploration for our guests. Children and adults alike can join Aquarium experts at one of our family or adults-only seining programs, as we cast a large net into the ocean and work together to identify our findings – from pompanos to shrimp! Call (843) 579-8518 to learn more or reserve your spot today.

Mackenzi PolkSea Turtle BiologistAll I needed was one time. One time holding a Kemp’s ridley sea turtle to
know I wanted to be a sea turtle biologist. For this reason, I studied marine
biology at the University of South Carolina. While in school, I volunteered
at the Riverbanks Zoo as an aquarist and diver. I also volunteered with the
South Carolina Department of Natural Resources during the summers, helping
with terrapin research and some sea turtle research as well. In January
2017, I started as an intern with the Sea Turtle Care Center. After several
months and lots of hard work, I became a full-time sea turtle biologist.
Not only do I feel fortunate to be on this team, but it’s a remarkable
feeling knowing you’re the voice for a species that doesn’t have its own.
Cait CrosbySea Turtle BiologistI’m originally from a state where the only sea turtles you’ll find are fossils –
Wyoming! I’ve always loved animals and grew up wanting to be a veterinarian
or a park ranger. I decided to major in biology at Georgia Southwestern
State University. Throughout undergrad, I worked at a veterinary clinic
and did my thesis on gopher tortoises, which really got me into the turtle
world. After graduating, I served in the AmeriCorps program at the Georgia
Sea Turtle Center for two years, working in sea turtle husbandry, outreach
and education. I’ve been working here in the Sea Turtle Care Center for
almost three years now! As a biologist, I have the unique opportunity to
communicate my passion for conservation to guests through rehabilitation,
and show how we can all contribute to the greater good in some small way.
Melissa Ranly Sea Turtle Care Center ManagerAs young as I can remember, I have always been passionate about the
marine environment and aquatic animals. As a child growing up in Florida,
my parents taught me to swim even before I could walk. Living on the
intercoastal, I would regularly see manatees, dolphins and sea turtles right
off the dock. I was in awe of the marine ecosystem and knew that I wanted
to dedicate my life to protecting it. After college, I was fortunate enough to
begin my career at SeaWorld Orlando as an educator. From there, I went on
to become the hospital coordinator and manager of two other sea turtle
hospitals.
Throughout my 21-year career of marine animal care and rehabilitation, I have
continued to grow. I am so excited to take on my new role as the Manager
of the Sea Turtle Care Center, and I am so thankful to be part of the
South Carolina Aquarium team.
Sea Turtle Care Center™Meet the Team
Summer is almost upon us. The weather
is steadily getting warmer, the waters
are becoming milder and the sun is
blazing hot. It’s the season of long
afternoons at the beach, swimming
in the ocean waves, rosé all day and
of course, local sea turtle releases!
There are many moving parts that go into
planning a sea turtle release, especially
a public beach release. First and
foremost, Sea Turtle Care Center staff
works with South Carolina Department
of Natural Resources (SCDNR) officials
to determine where and when each
patient should be released based on its
own individual needs and best chance
for success. Remember, these turtles
are experiencing things they have rarely,
if ever, experienced before, such as a
car ride, the heat of the sun without
the ocean to cool them, large crowds
of people, pets, vehicles and all of the
Katelyn McGlothlinSea Turtle BiologistGrowing up, I was always in love with animals and the outdoors. In the
fifth grade we visited SeaWorld, where I swam with dolphins and, like
most kids, I told my family I was going to be a dolphin trainer. That dream
never went away. When the time came to decide on a career path, I chose
Coastal Carolina University’s marine science program. While I originally
wanted to be a dolphin trainer, I learned about all of the other amazing
careers in marine science. I took a sea turtle biology class in Costa Rica,
where I researched nesting leatherbacks and decided I wanted to work
in sea turtle rehabilitation. After college, I completed three internships,
including an internship with the Sea Turtle Care Center. I have been
here nearly three years now and I can’t imagine doing anything else.
I leave each day knowing I made a difference in some small way.
hustle and bustle these things entail. It’s
a bit of a sensory overload! Additionally,
we consider physical condition, weather,
tides, water temperature, nearby human
activities that may be dangerous (such
as dredging) and where the animal
would naturally inhabit at that stage
in its life. Once we determine what is
best for the turtle, we begin contacting
the city, beach and county parks
and police and fire officials to help
us pinpoint a location and arrange
traffic control. Finally, with SCDNR
approval, we are ready to release.
With so many moving parts to
coordinate in such a small window
of time, sometimes it’s difficult to
provide ample notice when planning a
public release. Not to mention, early
notification of public releases could
attract unmanageably large crowds,
which could become a serious, and
perhaps dangerous, problem for
both animals and humans alike.
Much like it takes an army to rescue and
rehabilitate sick and injured sea turtles,
it takes many helpful hands to help
them return home once they’re healthy
and healed. Take heart in knowing that
we do everything we can to have a
happy and safe local release season
that you and the turtles will enjoy.

Have you ever come across a small spot on the beach marked with stakes in the shape of a square? Do you remember seeing a group of people walking up and down the beach with clipboards and instruments that they use to poke into the sand?
If so, you’ve crossed paths with one of South Carolina’s many “turtle teams” that volunteer with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) to monitor and protect sea turtle nests each summer.
More than 70% of the South Carolina coastline is critical nesting habitat for endangered sea turtles, including the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta). There are currently more than 20 active turtle teams in coastal communities from Hilton Head to North Myrtle Beach, all made up of dedicated community volunteers with a shared passion for sea turtle conservation.
The Kiawah Island Turtle Patrol currently boasts more than 350 active volunteers who comb ten miles of beach on Kiawah Island. Each mile of beach is led by a “zone captain” who schedules and mobilizes volunteers each day of nesting season to identify and monitor nests and support hatchlings within their zone. Volunteers are up bright and early each morning and spend a few hours each day checking on nests and helping hatchlings.
Turtle Patrol volunteers are often involved in a variety of conservation initiatives beyond their zone patrol. In fact, many of the volunteers are involved in regular litter

sweeps. Kiawah Island Patrol “head turtle,” Lynne Sager, is helping lead a new island initiative to assess the dangers of and alternatives to single-use plastic pollution.
In addition to their work on and off the beach, the Kiawah Island Turtle Patrol is dedicated to raising awareness for sea turtle conservation among island residents and vacationers. The Turtle Patrol developed an online training manual for volunteers that is accessible to curious residents and tourists through the Town of Kiawah’s website. This is part of the team’s efforts to engage more people in protecting our precious natural resources. The Turtle Patrol even offers a shadowing program that allows interested visitors and residents the opportunity to participate in supervised patrol along the beach to learn more about conservation practices and sea turtle nest protection.
The Kiawah Island Turtle Patrol’s deep commitment to sea turtle conservation is also demonstrated through their on-going support of the Sea Turtle Care Center™. In 2019, the team committed to raising $5,000 for the Care Center and has already raised more than $7,000 in support of our program!

Have you ever heard the advice “Eat oysters in months that include an ‘r’?” Would you believe us if we told you that you can eat Lowcountry-grown, sustainable oysters year-round, thanks to a growing list of local oyster farmers? That ages-old saying always referenced wild oysters that typically grow in clusters, but there are some new bivalves in town, and they are farmed, single and ready to mingle!
W H AT ’ S T H E D I F F E R E N C E B E T W E E N W I L D A N D F A R M E D O Y S T E R S ?
Most wild oysters grow in clusters throughout the saltmarsh and along the shore. These oyster populations are pivotal beyond being a food source: they help filter water, serve as habitat and protection for marine creatures and even help reduce erosion in certain areas.
Farmed oysters also filter water and create habitats. Because their location is specially selected, they can be placed in areas where they will not only thrive, but where they can contribute to the overall health and biodiversity of the area. Farmed oysters are triploids; they have an extra chromosome, making them sterile. Because of this, they focus all their energy into filtering water, growing in specialized underwater cages and reaching maturity (and a substantial size) after about two years. Soon after, these succulent singles can make it onto our plates! By offering a farmed oyster option, pressures can be reduced on wild oyster reefs and it will alleviate the state’s shell deficit.
