Cold Pack, Endangered Species by Sud Smart, Sea Turtle 1 pack For pain & fever relief! Hi, I’m a green tea turtle (Chelonia mydas) and I live here – in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. I get my name from the color of the green fat under my shell. I average 300 to 350 pounds and am more than 3 feet long when fully grown. I have a small head which I cannot retract into my shell like other turtles can, my upper shells are wide and smooth and my limbs are paddle-like for swimming. I am the second-largest turtle species in the world! I travel more than 1,000 miles from my feeding grounds throughout the ocean to the warm, tropical beaches where I mate and nest. Researchers recently determined that I use magnetic mapping – the biological equivalent of a GPS – to navigate on my lengthy journeys. I belong to one of the oldest turtle groups in the world and am older than humans by about 130 million years. Even though I have swam the seas and shuffled on the beaches for millions of years before humans arrived, it is the human presence that is causing shore declines in our numbers. Through hunting for meat and egg collection, loss of habitat by development and accidental capture in fishing gear, my population has dropped from millions to perhaps less than 200,000 worldwide. Only a tiny fraction of my female friends can be found nesting on US beaches, primarily on the east coast of Florida. Because of this we are classified as an endangered species, a distinction I could surely live without. Since 1947, Defenders of Wildlife has been doing all they can to help endangered animals like me, the green sea turtle, and others. Made in China. For Cold Therapy: Use as fever compress and for minor bumps, bruises, scrapes, headaches, toothaches, minor burns, insect bites, muscle aches, strains and sprains. Store the gel pack inside of the character in the freezer (for at least two hours) so it’s ready for emergency care. If the skin is broken, clean and bandage the injured area. To reduce swelling, elevate the injured area and apply the character’s satin side to the injury. Apply no longer than 20 minutes, alternate 20 minutes on with 20 minutes off the injury. To help reduce fever symptoms, lay the character’s satin side across the forehead or at the back of the neck, (Use along with doctor’s prescribed care.) Washing Instructions: Remove gel pack before washing character cover. Hand wash cover separately in cold water, line dry, no bleach. Do not iron. Gel pack may be wiped clean with mild soap. For external use only. Use only as directed. Discard gel pack if punctured or torn. Adult supervision is required. Always consult your physician with serious injuries or if symptoms persist.
