Marine Mammal Alliance of Nantucket: Seal Rescue 101

The Marine Mammal Alliance of Nantucket has added three more dates for their popular Seal Rescue 101 workshop, on three successive Tuesdays, August 10, 17, and 24, 9:30 — 10:45 am. Kids ages 5-12 gather on the beach with rescue team members and a veterinarian for a hands-on workshop about seals on ‘Sconset beach. They will learn about the laws protecting them, respecting safe distance, entanglements, how to identify if an animal is healthy or in distress and what to do if you see one. Masks are optional for participants, but instructors will be wearing them. The workshops are free, but space is limited— you can sign up on the website under the heading Educational Programs.
