In 2022, the Marine Mammal Care Center fed 100,000 lbs. of fish to ill animals. In 2023, they’ve fed them 150,000 lbs.
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.
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. The animals have a 60% to 90% survival rate if they can be transferred to the hospital early enough for care and treatment, Warner said. But theat the hospital is too great – a predicament further complicated because rescue workers don’t want to release sea lions that have recovered into the ocean yet, since the algae bloom is still present.
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. “Normally we see these dissipate four to six weeks after they start,” he said of the algae bloom. “This one is still highly concentrated in the same area. It’s anyone’s guess at this point … whether it’s going to dissipate soon, projected to, or whether it’s going to travel south or north.”
