Marine Mammal Care Center

With the ocean being so warm this year, we are seeing an extra large amount of sick sea lion pups.  All of the marine life centers are over flowing and therefore are doing all they can to raise awareness and collect donations to help take care of the pups.  The Marine Mammal Care Center had a "Seal Day" where we got to go see these animals up close, talk with the volunteers and learn how to make a Fish Smoothie.  If you are near such a facility, they could really use the following items: bleach, Vitamin B-1, Dish Soap, Vegetable Oil, Corn Syrup, Laundry Soap, Laytex Gloves, Outdoor Flood Lights, Hose Nozzles, etc.

Standing in front of a blow up Elephant Seal.  In the trunk behind it was a touch tide pool.
