Their arrival marks a major milestone in CMA’s growth as a leader in marine rescue\, care\, conservation education\, and research. \n\n\n\nThe new harbor seal habitat is part of CMA’s broader plan to expand its pinniped program\, including harbor seals and California sea lions. This addition strengthens CMA’s mission of rescue\, rehabilitation\, release\, and research while expanding conservation education to address global marine challenges. \n\n\n\nPinnipeds face threats such as pollution\, toxins\, habitat loss\, vessel strikes\, harassment\, and declining prey due to overfishing. While harbor seals are listed as Least Concern overall\, some populations remain endangered—making awareness and education essential. \n\n\n\nWelcoming harbor seals to CMA grows our animal care family and deepens our commitment to inspiring meaningful\, science‑based connections between people and marine life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGET TICKETS
