Report Details
A very dead and degraded marine mammal (sorry, the smell was too vile to approach closer) lay on the high tide line slightly north of the steps at the Coquille Point access. Pboto included.Further south, was a live but injured pelican opposite Face Rock. I contacted Free Flight and assisted in its capture. It's being treated for a soft-tissue injury but is otherwise in great shape. Too bad it refuses to eat. Force feeding is planned.
