Dolphins in Distress @ Cinematheque

“Dolphins in Distress” Film

Presented by the Marine Mammal Conservancy

Tuesday, May 11 @ 8pm

On March 2nd, 2005 over 80 rough-toothed dolphins (Steno bredanensis) stranded themselves on the sand flats off of Marathon, Florida with little hope of survival.  Some were able to maneuver back into deep water, but many more were sick, trapped, dehydrated, and beaten by the surf.  The Marine Mammal Conservancy (MMC), along with help from other local agencies, responded to the animals in distress with darkness approaching.  Dolphins in Distress is a documentary that chronicles the rescue, rehabilitation and eventual release of the survivors of this mass stranding event.

This film was made by Bob Care exclusively for the Marine Mammal Conservancy.  © BC Productions
