Welcome!
For over 20 years, Marine Animal Rescue volunteers have come to the aid of entangled or beached whales, dolphins, seals, sea lions and sea birds along the California coast. Marine Animal Rescue volunteers have rescued thousands of marine animals.
The mission of Marine Animal Rescue is to replace an inadequate system of marine animal care with an effective, efficient and compassionate system providing every animal the best possible chance for survival.
Marine Animal Rescue’s authorized territory is a very diverse coastline including, Marina del Rey, the largest man-made marina in the world, the rocky cliffs of Palos Verdes the crowed beaches of Venice and Santa Monica and the busy port of San Pedro. We also respond to Will Rogers Beach, Torrance, Royal Palms, Dockweiler, Redondo, White Point, Cabrillo, El Segundo, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach.
Marine Animal Rescue works in cooperation with the Los Angeles County Lifeguards, Police, Fire and Animal Services Departments throughout Los Angeles County. MAR is a participant in the national whale disentanglement network. Marine Animal Rescue volunteers also conduct educational presentations and community outreach programs throughout Los Angeles County.
Marine Animal Rescue vigorously opposes the capture and confinement of healthy marine mammals.
