) - With spring season underway, local researchers are bracing for a rise in calls about stranded marine mammals. FOX10 talked to a local researcher about this issue. We do want to warn you, some of the images you’re about to see may be disturbing.
“Right now at the moment we are in the calving season of the bottlenose dolphins so the mothers are having their calves and this is a very busy season for us as the stranding network because we respond to quite a few strandings of dead calves,” said Vendl. Just last week, Vendl hosted a discussion shedding more light on the topic, including the reasons behind these tragic deaths and how our community can step up to protect these incredible creatures. She points out that fishing nets and boat traffic are major threats, especially with the influx of visitors during spring break.
Annually, Dauphin Island researchers find themselves responding to roughly 40 dolphin and whale strandings.
