Saving Sea Lions: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Marine Mammal Rescue, Rehabilitation, and Release
<p>Found a stranded sea lion? Call the professionals!</p><p>Jennifer Levine (she/her) is the Stranding, Operations, and Animal Care Manager of the Channel Islands Marine & Wildlife Institute (CIMWI). She teaches us what to do if we encounter a stranded marine mammal on the beach: do not touch the animal or pour water over them, give them plenty of space, identify your location, call a marine mammal rescue hotline, and keep the public and pets away while waiting for the professionals to arrive. We talk about a typical rehabilitation shift at CIMWI, the impressive resilience of marine mammals, and how rewarding it is to see recovered patients thriving in the wild. We also discuss the impact of domoic acid on marine mammals as a result of harmful algal blooms in the ocean.</p><p><br></p><p><u><strong>Sources</strong></u></p><p>California Department of Public Health</p><p><strong></strong><a href="https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CEH/DFDCS/pages/fdbprograms/foodsafetyprogram/domoicacid.aspx"><u>https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CEH/DFDCS/pages/fdbprograms/foodsafetyprogram/domoicacid.aspx</u></a> </p><p>National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)</p><p><strong></strong><a href="https://www.noaa.gov/what-is-harmful-algal-bloom"><u>https://www.noaa.gov/what-is-harmful-algal-bloom</u></a></p><p><br></p><p><u><strong>Music Credits</strong></u></p><p>Glow by Scott Buckley | <a href="https://soundcloud.com/scottbuckley" target="_blank">https://soundcloud.com/scottbuckley</a></p><p>Music promoted by <a href="https://www.free-stock-music.com" target="_blank">https://www.free-stock-music.com</a></p><p>Creative Commons / Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)</p><p><a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a></p>

Exotic Vet Med, Medical Ethics, and the Financial Reality of Working in Animal Care
<p>Alex is a registered veterinary technician (RVT) in an emergency animal hospital. We explore the fascinating natural history of reptiles, as well as the dynamics of general and professional interest in exotic veterinary medicine. We discuss the financial reality of working as a veterinary nurse (compared to management positions and big corporations), such as low hourly wages and limited opportunities for raises. We touch on topics of medical ethics like recommending euthanasia, navigating diverse belief systems, and managing personal opinions when collaborating with clients. Alex also provides insight on getting started in the field, such as working your way up the totem pole, taking direction, working in a team, and asking all the questions!</p><p><br></p><p>Sources </p><p><strong>AMA Journal of Ethics</strong></p><p><strong></strong><a href="https://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/article/physician-assisted-suicide-law-and-professional-ethics/2003-01" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/article/physician-assisted-suicide-law-and-professional-ethics/2003-01</a><strong></strong></p><p><strong>PBS</strong></p><p><strong></strong><a href="https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/kevorkian/chronology.html" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/kevorkian/chronology.html</a></p><p><br></p><p>Music CreditsGlow by Scott Buckley | <a href="https://soundcloud.com/scottbuckley" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://soundcloud.com/scottbuckley</a>Music promoted by <a href="https://www.free-stock-music.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.free-stock-music.com</a>Creative Commons / Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)<br><a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a></p>
