Your Impact Doubled for a Marine Mammal in Need

Since 1975, people like you have helped us rescue and learn from more than 27,000 marine mammals. While our work begins with animals, it depends on ocean heroes like you.

Today, will you honor the 27,000 second chances made possible for marine mammals by donating $27 to help the next animal in need? Your gift will be doubled dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000 by the Gordon Family.

Michael Adamson

Response Operations Coordinator

In his role as Response Dispatcher, Mike answers calls to our California rescue hotline, coordinating the appropriate responses in our northern range, and empowering and supporting teams at our field offices in their response work. 

Mike has worked as a water and climate science writer for the last six years and as a Friday Night Topside Crew volunteer for the last five years. He brings a wealth of environmental knowledge and public communication experience to the Field Operations & Response department. 

When not working, Mike is trying to get outside as soon as possible, where he can be seen flopping along underwater in scuba gear, stumbling around above water while sailing in San Francisco Bay, flailing about above ground on various rock formations and gesticulating wildly while photographing elephant seals at Piedras Blancas.
