Abstract:
Lagniappe is an adult female Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle that was found in a burrow pit pond in Southern Vermilion Parish, Louisiana and is believed to have been trapped in the pond since Hurricane Ike in September 2008. The term “Lagniappe” means “an extra or unexpected gift or benefit” and is a term commonly used in Louisiana. <br>The rescue effort for Lagniappe was spearheaded by The Louisiana Marine Mammal and Sea Turtle Rescue Program-“ LMMSTRP” along with the valuable help of other partner organizations such as The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) and the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas (AAOA). The rescue took place on March 11, 2009. Once the turtle was rescued it was transported to the Audubon’s Aquatic Center (AAC). LDWF furthermore secured LMMSTRP the funding to obtain a satellite tag. Lagniappe was outfitted with a Kiwistat 101 tag by Sirtrack. The tracking of a rehabilitated sea turtle is very important to the LMMSTRP program in that a rehab turtle has not been tagged since 2005. Lagniappe was released on October 14, 2009 21 miles off the coast of Grand Isle, Louisiana. <br>Along the Louisiana Coast we get countless stranded sea turtles in particular Kemp’s Ridley. By tagging Lagniappe we hope to gain more crucially valuable data that would enable us to understand more about such an endangered species.<br>The Louisiana Marine Mammal and Sea Turtle Rescue Program is a volunteer organization based out of Audubon Aquarium of the Americas through the Audubon Nature Institute. It is committed to the humane care and treatment of injured, ill, or out-of-habit marine mammals (such as manatees) and sea turtles.
This dataset is a summarized representation of the telemetry locations aggregated per species per 1-degree cell.

数据集归属：数据提供方为路易斯安那州海洋哺乳动物与海龟救助项目；原始数据中心：卫星跟踪与分析工具（Satellite Tracking and Analysis Tool，STAT）；项目资助方说明：路易斯安那州野生动物与渔业部（LDWF-Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries）

摘要：拉格尼娅普（Lagniappe）是一只雌性成年肯普氏丽龟（Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle），于路易斯安那州弗米利恩堂区南部的一处掘穴池塘中被发现，据信自2008年9月飓风“艾克”以来便被困于该池塘内。“拉格尼娅普”一词意为“额外的惊喜馈赠”，是路易斯安那州常用的俚语。
本次救助行动由路易斯安那州海洋哺乳动物与海龟救助项目（LMMSTRP）牵头，并得到了路易斯安那州野生动物与渔业部（LDWF）、奥杜邦美洲水族馆（Audubon Aquarium of the Americas，AAOA）等合作机构的鼎力支持。救助行动于2009年3月11日开展，海龟被救后转运至奥杜邦水生中心（Audubon’s Aquatic Center，AAC）。LDWF还为LMMSTRP提供了卫星追踪标签的购置经费。Sirtrack公司为拉格尼娅普安装了Kiwistat 101型卫星标签。对于LMMSTRP项目而言，对康复后海龟的追踪极具意义——该项目自2005年以来未再对康复海龟进行过标记。拉格尼娅普于2009年10月14日在路易斯安那州格兰德艾尔沿岸21英里处被放归。
路易斯安那州沿岸常有大量搁浅海龟，尤以肯普氏丽龟为甚。通过对拉格尼娅普的标记追踪，我们期望获取更为关键的宝贵数据，以加深对这一濒危物种的认知。
路易斯安那州海洋哺乳动物与海龟救助项目是依托奥杜邦自然研究所旗下奥杜邦美洲水族馆运营的志愿者组织，致力于为受伤、患病或脱离栖息环境的海洋哺乳动物（如海牛）与海龟提供人道照料与治疗。
