    Description
    This course offers students the opportunity to survey marine mammal conservation through animal rescue, rehabilitation and re-sightings in a hands-on, field-based setting. In-class meetings will orient students to how and why marine mammals are rescued and rehabilitated. Additionally, it provides an understanding as to how those efforts fit in the big picture by learning what these sentinels of the sea are indicating about the health of the ocean.
