DONATE TO THE SEA LION PUP CRISIS
We’re working to bring attention to the ongoing crisis, the coordinated response to it, and the need to determine what might be causing the alarming number of sea lion pups to strand along southern California beaches. The number of stranded pups has now reached more than 1,300, setting records and drawing international concern from the scientific community.
At the National Marine Mammal Foundation, we provide animal care and personnel support to the Marine Mammal Care Center in Los Angeles County the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Orange County as well. Your support makes it possible for our animal care experts to work directly with our colleagues along the southern California coast. In short, your donations are saving the lives of these sick sea lion pups. Thank you for the enormous impact you continue to make in these pups’ lives.
