FOLC & BLM are excited to host a free lecture at the Shelter Cove Community Clubhouse on Friday, April 26 with Dr. Dawn Goley, Cal Poly Humboldt Professor of Zoology and Director of the Stranded Marine Mammal Monitoring Program.  In this lecture, she will highlight the work of/data collected by the Shelter Cove Community Hub of the Stranded Marine Mammal Monitoring Program, and will share what we learned through this effort and how this relates to the larger data her team collected from over 200 miles of northern CA coastline. She will also touch a recent leptospirosis outbreak that caused a significant uptick in marine mammal strandings and fatalities last summer/fall.  The Shelter Cove Community Clubhouse is located at 1555 Upper Pacific Dr. in Shelter Cove.  Doors at 5pm with lecture at 5:30 and Q&A to follow.
