“Early this morning I was walking on the beach and Onyx started barking at a pile of ocean trash that had washed during high tide,” Bunchen explained. “When I came closer I saw this beautiful turtle turned upside down with a look of hopelessness and exhaustion in her eyes, her body knotted and entangled in a fishing net.”
