A 266-pound loggerhead turtle begins a deep-diving swimming trial at The Florida Aquarium. The loggerhead turtle named "Jackie" was found stranded nearly 30 years ago and cannot be released into the wild. She has been under human care ever since. Senior Sea Turtle Biologist Alyssa Fessett with The Florida Aquarium said the turtle arrived at the aquarium's Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Center in Apollo Beach last week.
