Summary:
Cornwall Wildlife Trust has launched an urgent appeal for funds to pay for vital research to discover why so many marine mammals are stranding on our beaches.
Cornwall sees a phenomenal 20% of all UK strandings, including seals, porpoises, sharks, turtles and rare bottlenose dolphins. In fact, 2017 was a devastating year for our dolphins and porpoise. A total of 249 cetaceans were recorded as Marine Strandings along the Cornish coastline. This figure was alarmingly high, the highest recorded since 2003.
Furthermore, scientists estimate that only 5-10% of animals dying at sea ever get washed ashore, meaning last year the total off Cornwall could have been closer to between 2,490 and 4,980 individual animals.
