Training Partners
The Marine Mammal Center (MMC), located in Sausalito, California deserves special thanks since it was the first non-profit I reached out to when researching sea lion disentanglement. MMC has provided myself and so many volunteers training in sea lion disentanglement in the Gulf of California. I hope very soon we will be working with them again.
Governmental Partners
PROFEPA, Mexico’s version of America’s FDA
CONANP, Mexico’s version of America’s national parks system
