Two new smartphone apps are now available for iPhone and Android devices: *Dolphin & Whale 911 and SEE & ID Dolphins & Whales.* *Dolphin & Whale 911 *enables the public in the Southeast U.S. to immediately report live or dead stranded, injured, or entangled marine mammals by connecting them to the nearest stranding response hotline which is detected through the phone’s internal GPS system. The app will help the user identify the stranded animal by providing an electronic field guide of marine mammals found in the Southeastern U.S. and also provides a list of “do’s and don’ts” or tips on what to do when you find a live or dead stranded marine mammal. The app allows users to take and send a photo of the marine mammal that is time/date/GPS coordinate stamped directly to the stranding network. *SEE & ID Dolphins & Whales* is an electronic field guide that assists the public in identifying marine mammals in the Southeast U.S. and provide species information such as physical description, biology, habitat, conservation/status and photos. The app also informs that public of appropriate ways to enjoy viewing marine mammals in the wild without harming or harassing them. The apps are currently available for download on iTunes and in the Google Play store. *SEE & ID Dolphins & Whale*s- Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.noaa.see_id_dolphins_whale... iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/see-id-dolphins-whales/id699127250?mt=8 *Dolphin & Whale 911*- Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.noaa.dolphinwhale911 and iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dolphin-whale-911/id698859376?mt=8 NOAA Fisheries, in partnership with Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Consortium (MASGC) and Versar-Geo-Marine, Inc. and with the technical expertise from Applied Research Associates, worked collaboratively to develop these smartphone apps.
