Rescue
Unlike whales and dolphins, seals and sea lions don't have to remain in water in order to survive. The animals beach themselves to be warm and dry when feeling ill. They seek rest on land for a variety of reasons and are not always in need of intervention. Our staff is trained to recognize animals suffering from infections, malnourishment, pneumonia, gill net strangulation, etc. which can harm an animal's chance for survival.
Rehabilitation
When a patient is admitted, our staff performs all necessary procedures under the direction and protocols set by the Animal Care Director and our Veterinary Medical Director. During the course of rehabilitation, animals require a variety of treatments such as administration of antibiotics and subcutaneous fluids, tube feeding, force feeding, wound care, etc.
Most animals come in dehydrated and the most effective means to provide fluids and nourishment is through tube feeding. The process requires blending of fish, electrolytes, warm water, vitamins, and medication into a fish formula. This formula is fed to the animals by inserting a flexible tube into the stomach using large syringes. As soon as the animals are hydrated and stable, we wean them to eat whole fish.
Release
Once an animal has gained an optimal weight and is competing for food, it's ready for release. Prior to release, each animal is tagged with an identification number. The color-coded tags indicate the animal has been rehabilitated and helps identify the specific animal and care center in case the animal needs care in the future. We strive to return every one of our patients back to the wild once their care with us is complete.

How You Can Help
DONATE HERE
Pacific Marine Mammal Center suggests taking the following actions if a stranded marine mammal is spotted on shore:
1. Do not approach the animal. Please keep a distance of 50 yards from the animal.
2. Call Pacific Marine Mammal Center at 949.494.3050 to report the exact description and location of the animal.
3. Keep others from approaching the animal, as well as any dogs.
4. Do not attempt to push or encourage the animal back into the ocean, pour water
on the animal, or feed the animal.
5. Make a donation. PMMC is a non-profit that depends entirely on public support to respond and care for the county's marine mammals. You can make a donation by visiting pacificmmc.org or calling the center at 949-494-3050 to pledge your support.
First and foremost, we need anyone who sees a seal or sea lion on the beach to back away and call us immediately.
We have had a higher number of people chasing the animals back into the water this year, which is the worst thing that can happen to a sick animal. These pups are coming ashore to get warm and rest, and are hauling out of the ocean to survive.
We encourage the public to keep their distance, call us to help identify the animal and location, and keep others away until we arrive. This will give us the best possible chance to assist these pups that need our help, says Executive Director Keith Matassa.
Secondly, we are accepting donations to help our non-profit provide the care the animals need. With this high number of animals, we are going through our financial resources at an alarming rate. Every dollar counts, and anyone able to support us during this time is greatly appreciated.

Officer Jon rescue off of Newport Bouy by the Pacific Marine Mammal Center on October 4
A sub-adult California sea lion that was entangled in 2 gill nets around his neck was rescued off the Newport bouy by the Pacific Marine Mammal Center rescue team with the help of the Orange County Sheriff's Department Harbor Patrol. The first attempt the sea lion jumped off the buoy and after waiting a short while the animal jumped back on. Several passes with the boat were made getting closer each time until they were finally able to net him and get him on board in a kennel for transport. He has been named in memory of Laguna Beach Police Officer, Jon Coutchie recently killed in an accident on duty. We would also like to thank Harbor Patrol officers, Sgt. D.J. Haldeman, Sgt, John Hollenbeck and Deputies, Josh Baugh, Chris Hancock, and Kevin Webster for their assistance in this rescue.
