The Aquarium of the Pacific and Marine Mammal Care Center are partnering to pilot a program engaging the public on beaches in response to a large scale stranding event. Volunteers are helping to monitor for Domoic Acid (DA) and other seal and sea lion (pinniped) behaviors on beaches or near people.
