This past summer,
Mystic Aquarium’s Animal Rescue Team took to the beaches and beyond
during their 2nd Annual Seal Scoot Summer Tour. The Team
visited five different beaches and a river park, reaching over 500
people alone. Plus, members of the Team walked the summertime lines
outside Mystic Aquarium and attended special events including Women
in Science Day and Seals on the Rocks, all to help raise
awareness of the Animal Rescue Program.

Overall, this
year’s Seal Scoot Summer Tour reached thousands of community
members, and it’s not over yet! We have one final stop planned
before the Summer Tour wraps up in a few days, so come meet the
Team and see how you can help out.

“We have an
amazing team of volunteers throughout the 1,000 miles of coastline
we cover, but it’s usually members of the general public who
provide us with the first alert of a marine animal sighting,” notes
Janelle Schuh, Stranding Coordinator for the Program. “That’s why
outreach like this is so vital to keep the community in the know
and to continue the success of our program.”
