Nearly 830 baby turtles were rescued from storm drains across the Jersey Shore.
The 826 Diamondback terrapin hatchlings had been hiding from the cold winter temps in their nest chambers and recently hatched at the Stockton University vivarium.
Stockton alumna Evelyn Kidd and her friends scooped the turtles from Ventnor and Margate, while Marlene Galdi and Joanne Fres rescued the turtles from Ocean City.
"When a baby terrapin successfully crawls across the street, they can meet yet another obstacle -- the curb," the university wrote.
"Marlene and Joanne regularly look for crossing terrapins to give them a hand."
The women discovered that curbs aren't the only obstacles for the quarter-sized turtles, who are small enough to slip through cracks of storm drains.
