The Marin County nonprofit that has spent years rescuing mammals is facing its own persistent challenge of its budgets, staff and volunteer crews.
The Marine Mammal Center, fully established in 1975 in Sausalito, is the largest hospital for marine mammals in the world.

It also runs a satellite facility to treat monk seals on the Big Island of Hawaii.
