Stewardship Saturday: Studying Marine Mammals in Elkhorn Slough

Traverse Moss Landing’s Elkhorn Slough with The Marine Mammal Center, Kayak Connection, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Sea Otter Rehabilitation Team! Through this event you will learn more about The Marine Mammal Center and Monterey Bay Aquarium’s work along the California coast, the different types of marine mammals present in the slough, and how to work to safely view and protect these important animals. We will be starting our morning with a free team breakfast and then heading to the water for a kayaking lesson and exploration of the slough waters. We hope that by the end of this event you will feel empowered to share your experience with others to increase understanding and respect for marine mammals in their natural environment.

Open to all high school students. See weblink for more information.
