From October 1st. a humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) was found entangled in our Southern California waters, and a dedicated marine mammal disentanglement team is worked tirelessly to help free it. 🐋

These rescues are difficult, dangerous, and often require patience, precision, and multiple attempts. Every effort is a chance to give this whale the freedom to swim without the weight and danger of entangling gear.

Moments like this remind us of both the vulnerability of marine life and the incredible people who dedicate themselves to protecting it.

Hoping this whale gets the freedom it deserves. 🌊🐋
