Crush, the loggerhead turtle, was found apparently lifeless on a beach on 19 January following Storm Goretti.
Malnourished and suffering from hypothermia, the turtle was flown to Southampton before being transferred to Weymouth Sea Life centre, where she has been cared for alongside other rescued turtles.
Following her recovery, Crush is now back in quarantine as she prepares for the second flight of her life, 1,500 miles (2,500km) to the Azores, where she will be released in warmer waters.

'It felt a bit James Bond': The mission to reintroduce a lost insect
Jaroslav MalyBritish conservationists have travelled to a French military base to bring a long-lost singing insect back to the UK.
The Species Recovery Trust (SRT) has collected New Forest Cicada eggs from the Académie Militaire de Saint-Cyr Coëtquidan in Brittany and brought them back to Paultons Park Zoo in Hampshire.
The insect was last seen in the New Forest in the 1990s and specialist listening equipment was used to locate the insect in France and its eggs which were hidden inside the stems of bracken.
The plant samples were transported back across the Channel on last month, with hopes that they will eventually be able to re-establish the species in the south of England.
