The Marine Mammal Center is a nonprofit veterinary hospital, research and
educational center dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of ill and injured
marine mammals,primarily elephant seals, harbor seals, and California sea lions.
Its research team studies the causes of illness in these animals, and by doing
so, learns about conditions affecting the health of marine mammal populations
and the oceans � discovering conditions that can affect humans as well. In
addition, the Center�s education programs teach thousands of students and the
visiting public each year about marine mammals and the urgent need for
environmental stewardship of earth�s marine environments.
