The GSPCA has stopped trying to move Bill directly due to challenges with transport from Guernsey.

"Cold-stunned" rare turtles that washed up in UK waters are nurtured back to health.

Barnacle Bill has been with the GSPCA since her rescue nearly a year ago.

The creature has been released in the Azores after a successful rehabilitation programme.

The turtle was found washed up on the west coast of Guernsey after Storm Ciarán.

The turtle, who became a viral sensation, is getting fit for a move next door to a female neighbour.

Three juvenile turtles are found over the course of a week and at least two have since died.

Nazaré was discovered covered in algae and cuts at Walney Island in Cumbria two weeks ago.
