More than 1,000 sea lions and dolphins have fallen ill and washed up along California’s coastline over the last several weeks.
The largest toxic algae bloom ever recorded off Southern California’s coast is continuing to sicken sea lions and other marine mammals, and it’s unclear how much longer it will last, one marine mammal specialist said Thursday, July 6.
L.A. City Councilmember Traci Park speaks at a press conference to address the recent sea lion crisis. In recent weeks, dozens of sea lions have fallen ill due to a significant algae bloom along the coast and a resting place has been designated for sick sea lions in Marina del Rey on Thursday, July 6, 2023.
John Warner, president of the Marine Mammal Care Center, speaks at a press conference to address the recent sea lion crisis. In recent weeks, dozens of sea lions have fallen ill due to a significant algae bloom along the coast and a resting place has been designated for sick sea lions in Marina del Rey on Thursday, July 6, 2023. Hundreds of marine mammals are being stranded weekly around L.A.
As a result, sea lions waiting to be admitted to the hospital are currently recuperating at a resting zone set up on Charlie’s Beach in Marina del Rey, a 50-by-50 square-foot fenced in area that protects them from human foot traffic. A full-time veterinarian is currently stationed there to care for the animals and make sure the sea lions are hydrated and receive fluids to wash out the toxins, Warner said.
The algae bloom causing marine mammals to get sick started at the end of May, with the first reports of mammals being affected in Los Angeles County in the first week of June, Warner said.
