BOSTON (WHDH) -- Myrtle the turtle is on the move.
The green sea turtle was taken out of the New England Aquarium's giant ocean tank while the tank undergoes a $17 million reconstruction.
The tank has been Myrtle’s home for the past 40 years.
The more than 80-year-old turtle is now living in her temporary home at the aquarium.
She will be there until the tank is fixed and back open in 9 months.
