What to do if you come across a stranded marine animal 🌊
While many people may feel the urge to go help if they see a stranded marine animal, Wimmer says people shouldn’t intervene as it can be dangerous. MARS operates a toll-free hotline to report any stranded animals at 1-866-567-6277. Instead she recommends calling Marine Animal Response Society
