The number of cold stunned sea turtles found can vary a lot from year to year. It depends on the number of turtles in the area and on the number, frequency, duration, and severity of any cold weather events. If the winter is very mild, we may not find any cold stunned sea turtles. If we get only one sudden and severe cold front, and it does not last very long, we may only find a couple of cold stunned turtles. But if we get several severe cold fronts over a short period of time, and each one lasts several days, we may find hundreds or even thousands of cold stunned turtles in just a few weeks!
