AQWA Flatback sea turtles stolen

the article above says that the stolen turtles were "rehab" animals:
An AQWA spokeswoman said the turtles were part of a rehabilitation and research program, and were due to be released soon.
"They were the little rehab turtles, who were awaiting release in our special enclosure," she said.

They were actually babies from wild-collected eggs hatched at the aquarium and due for release. Last article I could find, the turtles had not been recovered.
