Toxic Algae Bloom Strains Marine Mammals Along California Coast
A toxic algae bloom along the California coast is causing severe health issues among marine mammals, particularly sea lions and dolphins, due to domoic acid poisoning. Reports indicate that over 100 sea lions and dolphins have died this year, with SeaWorld San Diego and other rescue organizations treating numerous affected animals, including incidents of aggressive behavior linked to the poisoning. Experts warn that the increase in toxic blooms is becoming more frequent, exacerbated by rising ocean temperatures and runoff pollution. One surfer recently experienced an aggressive encounter with a sea lion, highlighting the potential dangers posed to humans by the affected animals. Despite the alarming situation, experts note that harmful algae blooms are common during warmer months, although this year's outbreak has been particularly severe. Rescue teams emphasize the importance of keeping a safe distance from sick marine mammals and contacting professionals for help.
