Be a Marine Mammal Hero Year-Round

It’s pupping season and that means pups will be pouring through our hospital doors in need of meals and meds. But did you know you can help not only during pupping season, but year-round?

Yes, as a monthly donor, you will help provide fish meals, meds and care for a marine mammal like Magoo so they can regain their strength and return to their ocean home. Then the next month, you will help another patient. And the next month? You will make it possible again!

Plus, new monthly gifts will be matched up to $1,000 when you sign up by Sunday, February 23.

I feel fortunate every day to work with and learn from such amazing animals. I strive to make a difference in conservation so future generations can feel as much joy from the ocean as I feel.

Five years later, after completing her veterinary technician training, Liz returned to the Center in a full-time role. As a Veterinary Technician at the Center, Liz assists in the care and treatment of sick and injured marine mammals, monitors patients under anesthesia during procedures and surgeries, and assists with teaching and supporting veterinary students and animal care volunteers.

Prior to joining the Center, Liz was the Derald H. Ruttenberg Veterinary Technician Intern with the Wildlife Conservation Society in New York and worked as a Veterinary Assistant in Rhode Island and Connecticut. She also served for four years as an Animal Rescue Program Volunteer at Mystic Aquarium.
