00:00The sun has risen. The mission has begun.
00:15We need to go to Pauigan to get this medicine.
00:20For a faster search and rescue operation in Pauigan, we split up into divers.
00:26Our team was led by a Pauigan man.
00:32Pauigan is a man.
00:55The search went on, but we couldn't find him.
01:01He's not here.
01:05Only one diver was able to tell us where Pauigan is.
01:15My prayer is that we'll be able to get him.
01:19If we can get him, we'll be able to do something.
01:25They say it's huge.
01:27It's huge for it to reach that size.
01:30We estimate that this Pauigan is 30, 40 or 50 years old.
01:34Plus, this is a male.
01:36So, if only a few males are being bred in Pauigan, I hope we'll be able to get him.
01:41Let's go.
01:51Let's secure the net on top of Pauigan before we get him.
02:00We have no idea what his strength level is.
02:04If he's weak, lethargic, or still active.
02:07We don't know.
02:08We expect the worst, that he's still strong.
02:11So, we have to talk.
02:15Okay.
02:17You, you, go down.
02:19You, you, go down.
02:21Then, go down like that.
02:23Just communicate, okay?
02:27Usually, Pauigan can be found in our port.
02:32It's around 60 feet.
02:35It's a bit far.
02:38I don't know why he went to this place.
02:41Maybe it's...
02:43Let's go, let's go, let's go.
02:50We went to Puerto Galera to rescue and treat a Pauigan.
03:08If the Pauigan won't be treated, he might die.
03:11He's dead.
03:34It's not easy to rescue a Pauigan.
03:42It's more than 1 meter long.
03:46And it weighs 3 bags of rice.
03:55Let's go there.
03:57Let's go to the back.
03:59Let's go to the back.
04:01Let's go to the back.
04:03Let's go down.
04:05Let's go.
04:07Let's go.
04:08Let's lift his head.
04:10He might fall.
04:12Let's go.
04:21Let's do our first objective.
04:23So, this is a three-stage procedure.
04:26Our first stage is to recover the patient.
04:30Put him here in the boat.
04:32Pauigan's wound is possible because of the propeller of the boat.
04:38When we lift him up to breathe,
04:41the boat is moving.
04:47Let's put the hat here because he has a wound.
04:50Sounder, hold him here.
04:52Hold him here.
04:53And here.
04:54Let him lie down first.
04:59Don't hold him here.
05:02Because he has a wound.
05:03So, if he vomits,
05:05you'll have to help him.
05:07Let's do it together.
05:08Then, there's a jump here.
05:11Put your hands here.
05:12One, two.
05:14Jump.
05:16Jump.
05:26Jump.
05:27Jump.
05:28Jump.
05:29Jump.
05:30Jump.
05:31Jump.
05:32Jump.
05:33Jump.
05:34Jump.
05:35Jump.
05:36Jump.
05:37Jump.
05:38Jump.
05:39Jump.
05:40Jump.
05:41Jump.
05:42Jump.
05:43Jump.
05:44I gave him a local anesthetic
05:47and a sedative.
05:49So, he'll calm down.
05:51We only rescued one male green sea turtle.
05:54Pauigan is endangered.
05:56So, it's important to save him.
05:58He didn't struggle much
05:59because our local anesthesia worked.
06:02That's why.
06:04But we only have a window of two hours
06:06for us to be able to accomplish everything.
06:10At a weight of 177 kilos,
06:13Pauigan has been standing for 50 years.
06:16If you notice, he's already necrotic.
06:19When we put him on the boat,
06:21he already smelled something.
06:23He smelled rotting tissue,
06:24rotting flesh.
06:27If he doesn't receive treatment,
06:28Pauigan might die due to infection.
06:31There's a part of his wound that's rotting.
06:34I'm just removing the infected tissues.
06:44Maybe more than a week.
06:49Pauigan has a deep shell fracture.
07:02The wound can't be amputated.
07:05It can't be amputated
07:07because it's already rotting.
07:08So, we're left with the option
07:09of just amputating this last cute.
07:12We'll amputate it using metal wires.
07:16The healing of the bone for sea turtles
07:19or turtles in general, reptiles,
07:21would take around three to six months.
07:23Now, what we did was to cover the wound.
07:26So, it will allow the healing to take place.
07:29And then, we'll start the healing process.
07:34We'll cover the cut parts of his shell.
07:42Sorry, boys.
07:44Pauigan's shell is important.
07:48This is the backbone of their bones.
07:51This is what they call a house
07:53that gives them protection
07:55against predators such as sharks.
07:59After about two hours of operation,
08:02we need to bring him to a facility
08:05for observation.
08:13Wake up.
08:15Wake up.
08:21Wake up.
08:29This will be his temporary enclosure
08:33while we're treating,
08:35we're giving medication.
08:41Thank you so much for watching Born to be Wild.
