Marion Natural History Museum

Marion Natural History Museum is hosting Marine animals of our coastline, Friday December 12 from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the Marion Natural History Museum, 8 Spring Street, Marion.

Join Carol “Krill” Carson for an informative presentation on the unique marine wildlife that can be found off the shores of Cape Cod and southeastern Massachusetts. Krill is a marine biologist who has been rescuing and researching marine wildlife in the New England area since 1980. Hear about the humpback whales, gray seals, ocean sunfish, basking sharks, great whites, sea turtles and the other species that come to feed and raise their young in the waters off Cape Cod.

Krill is the founder and president of New England Coastal Wildlife Alliance (NECWA), an all-volunteer nonprofit based in southeastern MA. “Every Animal Counts” is NECWA’s motto. NECWA responds to any distressed and stranded marine wildlife on our beaches but specializes in marine wildlife that are not taken care of by other organizations in the area.
