26、y second year as Chairman of The Marine Mammal Center and I have to say that I am truly amazed at what we have accomplished.The year 2007 saw impressive growth in our scientific knowledge on marine mammal health and our ability to find creative solutions to critical animal rescue and care issues.We
27、learned that,with a little ingenuity,antibiotics can be concentrated and administered by dart to humpback whales in the wild,as was the case with a mother and her calf that swam up the Sacramento River in May.Our scientists published research significant to human health as well as marine mammal cons
28、ervation,highlighting the indicator species role these animals play.The newest report from our ongoing research on the effects of domoic acid,a toxin produced by harmful algal blooms or“red tides”on sea lions identifies epilepsy in these animals as a result of previous low dose exposure to the toxin
29、.This is important,as similar effects could occur in people if they ate seafood containing these levels of domoic acid.The Centers research team also began the first year of studies to identify environmental factors that may affect the health of harbor seals along our coast.In 2007,our volunteers an
30、d staff admitted over 700 marine mammals to our hospital.In addition,rare and endangered Hawaiian monk seal twins are now back in the ocean,thanks to our ongoing work in a special rehabilitation program.Its been an amazing year of accomplishments indeed!We continued our task of fundraising for the c
31、apital campaign to rebuild our facility into a world-class veterinary and research hospital dedicated to the study and advancement of marine mammal health and awareness.As can be seen by the list of donors at the end of this report,we have attracted donations from a prestigious list of foundations a
32、nd individuals,many of whom are new to us.One of our prime objectives is to introduce the Center to more people both within and outside of the Bay Area.These and so many other grants and donations send a strong message of how relevant The Marine Mammal Center is to the study of marine mammal health
33、and of the respect and admiration we have earned with so many organizations and individuals.While we were busy raising funds for the capital campaign and rescuing animals,we kept the other side of our house in order as well by maintaining a healthy revenue stream and cash flow balances to fuel our o
34、perations.Our revenue for the fiscal year ending September 30,2007 was$9.4 million.The net surplus of$3.8 million was from the capital campaign and is restricted for the Sausalito construction.The phrase“the best things are well worth the wait”is one that I am confident will hold true for all who vi

72、ring the month of May 2007,the nation wondered if a pair of injured humpback whales,an adult female and her female calf,that swam 75 miles up the murky,fresh water of the Sacramento Delta on May 9 would make it back to the ocean alive.The pair,nicknamed Delta and the calf Dawn,were part of the Easte
73、rn North Pacific Stock-an endangered population of less than 1500.Their journey is thought to be the longest ever taken by this species inland in fresh water.Not even the 1985 travels of Humphrey,another humpback whale,compared to the journey these two leviathans faced.A week after the whales swam t
74、o the shallow,narrow channel of the Port of Sacramento,Lieutenant Governor John Garamendi and the Office of Emergency Services appointed Dr.Frances Gulland,Director of Veterinary Science at The Marine Mammal Center,as animal rescue leader for the Uni-fied Command made up of local,state and federal a
75、gencies.On location,Dr.Gulland saw that the whales had sharp trauma wounds on their backs likely caused by at least one vessel strike.The rescue team tried persuading the whales to sea to no avail.By the whales 11th day in the fresh water,their situation was looking grim.Their skin condition was det
76、eriorating rapidly and their wounds had become infected.The longer they stayed in fresh water,the greater their risk of dying became.If they stayed in fresh water any longer,they would surely die.Dr.Gulland along with the Centers staff veterinarian,Dr.Felicia Nutter,assembled a team of experts to tr
77、y something never done on whales in the wild they administered care-fully measured doses of an antibiotic called Ceftiofur into each whale using a specially designed dart gun.The next day,the whales appeared to show signs of healing and they began making their journey back to the ocean.On May 29,aft

83、wound on her right front flipper that required a piece of infected bone to be removed surgically.Four months after recovering from her surgery at the Center,she was released at the Farallon Islands.Sandy Goose was one of 28 northern fur seals released in 2007,the largest number to date for The Marin
84、e Mammal Center.Melissa and NigelThe harbor seal habitat of Bay Area coastal waters is influenced by several human-produced factors,including sewage,agricultural and surface runoff,chemical pollution,and watercraft.Not only is it important to protect the seal population from toxic exposure that coul
85、d threaten its survival,but the seals also serve as good gauges for the safety of the marine environment in relation to human be-ings.In 2007,the Center began a study looking at the prevalence and health effects of marine contaminants in the San Francisco Bay Area.Two harbor seal pup patients,Meliss
86、a and Nigel,were rescued by the Center because they were abandoned by their mothers.They were treated for umbilical infections and fed by staff and volunteers at The Marine Mammal Center until they were big enough to fend for themselves in the wild.During rehabilitation,the Center tested the seals f
87、or exposure to various pathogens and contaminants.Once healthy the two seals were released wearing specially designed orange hat tags making it easier for scientists to chart their progress in the wild.Rescuing wild animals in times of crisisOn November 7,2007 an outbound container ship struck the B
88、ay Bridge in San Francisco,spilling approximately 58,000 gallons of bunker fuel into the bay.This was the largest oil spill in the San Francisco Bay since 1996.As a member of the Oiled Wildlife Care Network,The Marine Mammal Center assisted where needed and helped collect oiled birds from beaches in
89、 Marin County.For three weeks after the spill,local resting areas for sea lions and harbor seals were monitored extensively as part of the oil spill response.During this time,the Center rescued a Northern fur seal that was malnourished with a small amount of oil on its fur.The role that exposure to
90、the oil played in causing this and other marine mam-mals to beach themselves is still being investigated.The Year in NumbersPercentages are approximate due to rounding procedures.TNumber of animals admitted by speciesNumberperceNtCalifornia sea lions 459 64%Northern elephant seals 106 15%Pacific har

97、s due to predation and malnutrition is the main factor causing the decrease in the population.As part of a joint conservation effort,The Marine Mammal Center em-barked on a captive care project at Midway Atoll to provide nutritional supplementation to female juvenile monk seals in hopes of improving
98、 their chances of surviving in the wild to reproduce.This project was started in May 2006 by the birth of twin female pups at Midway Atoll.These two pups are the fourth known occurrence of twins in Hawaiian monk seals and the first pair that has been successfully weaned in recorded history.Both twin
99、s were undersized at weaning but were otherwise healthy.Because these were rare undersized female twins and given the history of poor juvenile survival,it was imperative to include the twins in the project.Five other female juveniles were included,and together with the twins were held in beach pens
100、and fed a high-fat diet to make them gain as much weight as possible prior to release.More advanced medical care was provided when the seals exhibited signs of ill health.The twins,as well as four of the females,were released back into the wild at Midway Atoll at the end of March 2007.Tamar the luck
101、iest elephant sealTamar,Hebrew for“little fig”,was a young black coat elephant seal(meaning she was less than 28 days old and still had her birth coat)that the Center rescued in Santa Cruz County in Febru-ary 2007.She had several tar patches stuck to her coat and her mother was nowhere to be seen.Ve
102、terinarians at the Center did have some clues about the little seals history.Tamar was sport-ing a pink flipper tag indicating that researchers from Point Reyes Bird Observatory Conservation Science had been studying her in the wild and knew that she was born on January 20.Records were examined and
103、the Center learned that Tamars mother had adopted another pup a day before giving birth to her.She nursed both Tamar and the adopted pup for four weeks and then left the island.With her mother gone,Tamar ventured out on her own and swam an estimated 70 miles from the Farallon Islands to Santa Cruz i

107、ine Sarran,performed the surgery,and Barbosas right eye was removed.Sea lions do well in the wild,even with one eye,and once his sutures were removed,Barbosa was released back to his natural habitat.2007 Rehabilitation Highlights For the second time in The Centers history,rescuers success-fully reun

111、nterey Bay operations.Since childhood,Rose had rescued injured animals,and she had always been interested in marine mammals.The two have covered the many difficult tasks it takes the Monterey Bay team to operate,from rescues to answering phones,facilities maintenance,and educational outreach.Rose is
112、 on the Med Team,which is medically trained to treat the animals,with Jon often assisting.The two have been involved with several of the Centers sea otter rescues,which are unique to the Monterey Bay operations.As seasoned volunteers,the two often mentor new volunteers,training them how to deal with
113、 the chaotic pace of working at the rescue facility.“I like to mentor new people and try to instill some of the love and respect that I feel for these animals into their training,”says Rose.The Padilla FamilyKen and June Padilla and daughter Jennifer(not shown)make volunteering at The Ma-rine Mammal
114、 Center a family affair.In 2002,Jennifer,a marine biology student,joined the Centers San Louis Obispo operations.Interested in their daughters work,June and Ken soon became engaged with the Centers work and joined the crew as well.The trio has responded to a variety of unusual situ-ations as volunte
115、ers.June recalls being on call with only two other women one night when calls came in for the rescue of three very large sea lions.“Each of the sea lions weighed approximately 100 to 150 lbs.,and each was suffering from the disastrous ef-fects of domoic acid poisoning”said June.Its not only the exci
116、tement,but the satisfaction of rescuing distressed animals that keeps this family volunteering.In Jennifers words,“Theres nothing better than rescuing a sick or injured animal on the beach and following their progress from recovery to release.”And the perks of doing it as a family?“You get to carpoo
117、l.”Val GuarinVal Guarins love of scuba diving led to over10 years of volunteering for The Marine Mammal Centers animal care team at its Sausalito op-erations.In addition,Val spent several years on the Centers Water Rescue Team,and still assists the Stranding Department with rescues in the area.“Litt
118、le did I know how dirty,stinky,tired,and worn-out I would be,while at the same time being happy,satisfied,amazed,and enlightened.Every single day at the Center brings new experiences,”says Val.“From the tiniest fur seals and black-coat elephant seals to harbor porpoises,and even a pygmy sperm whale
119、the opportunity to help further our knowledge,and the satisfaction in knowing that so many of our animals are returned to the ocean where they belong is what keeps me coming back.”thank youJeanne AcceturoEric Aguilar-MenMark AielloBill AkeHannah AkeJeremy AlcantaraBetty AldrichEva AlexanderAdrienne

165、ed from the beach.Education and Communications In 2007,The National Marine Sanctuarys Bay-Watershed Education and Training(B-WET)Grant,Irma Penniman Kahn Conservation Education Foundation and the Sato Foundation funded a full year of our Marine Science Discovery Program.This allowed for four low-inc
166、ome high schools to participate in the program.The Headlands Institutes Coastal Camps were widely popular and featured four programs taught by the Centers Education Department.A waiting list for the Centers classes existed even after the 4-week long programs were completed.The Centers programs,event
167、s and fairs reached more than 30,000 students and 10,000 adults during 2007.The Marin County Fair allowed the Center to reach a wide audience with its message.he goal of The Marine Mammal Centers Education and Communications programs is to increase visibility,awareness about the Centers work and sci
168、-entific achievements as well as to foster an appreciation for marine mammals and the marine environment.Marine Science Discovery ProgramOver the past 8 years,The Marine Mammal Centers Marine Science Discovery Program(MSDP)has become an integral part of many low-income high schools in the Bay Area.M
169、SDP allows urban high school students an opportunity to learn about a variety of marine science careers available to them through hands-on labs and fieldwork.In 2007,four schools participated in the program and for the first time,students were paired with Cordell Bank Sanctuary scientists on board t
170、heir research vessel C.Magister to learn about this offshore environment.Three stu-dents received a paid internship to volunteer on animal care crews,and to shadow the Centers staff and learn via hands-on-experience how to treat patients,perform laboratory functions and prepare specimens for study.Y

179、ite and other communica-tions tools,the media relations program educated volunteers,members,donors and the world about the Centers work In 2007,Philippe Cousteau,the famed environmental advocate and grandson of Captain Jacques-Yves Cousteau,filmed a segment featuring the Center that was seen around
180、the nation on Animal Planet television.In addition,work was completed on setting up the framework of the organizations branding and identity process,which includes an updated strategic media relations plan,updating collateral materials and un-veiling a new logo(featured in this report)which beautifu
181、lly represents how othe shared ocean environment is essential to the health of all life.This planning and continued media relations program will help the Center be optimally positioned upon re-opening to the public in spring 2009.?n September 2007,the Centers capital campaign was bolstered by a spec
182、ial$1 million challenge grant from the David and Lucile Packard Foundation.In order to receive this$1 million grant,the Center needed to raise$6.5 million by January 31,2008.As of press time of this report,the Center was less than$1 million away from the goal and confident that it would be achieved
183、by the deadline.It was an honor to have the capital campaign bolstered by the generosity and support of the Packard Foundation,one of the largest foundations in the country.Previously,the Packard Foundation had made a previous grant of$1 million to the capital campaign in 2005,and we are both excite
184、d and humbled by its new commitment to us.Some notable gifts we received in support of the Packard challenge included the following:$1.3 million from the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Fund$1 million from our board member and Treasurer Sandor Straus An additional$100,000 from our Chairman Merrill Magowan
