Dear all Marmam members,
On behalf of our team, I would like to announce that the regional Algarve Stranding Network (RAAlg) has been re-activated.
We therefore attend any stranded cetaceans or marine turtles that strand dead along the Algarve coast in Southern Portugal. We also developed a responsive webpage, which allows citizens to register information on any seen stranded animal. The alert is communicated to the team via email, and provides a faster response so we can access the animal and sample it. This unique page also provides information regarding our team, our work, results and ID of species of animals that strand in our coast.
We hope you enjoy our page.
Best wishes,
