About this organization
Mission
We believe in preserving our marine life and environment while inspiring the human spirit through leadership in education, research, rescue, rehabilitation, and release.
About
Rescue, Rehab, Release Clearwater Marine Aquarium staff and volunteers work each day to rescue marine life and provide the most advanced and effective care to maximize the opportunity to return sick or injured animals to their homes. The animals that come through our doors arrive because they are suffering from an illness or severe injury. Many of our animals are found by local residents, fishermen, park rangers or even visitors to the area. Animal Care A majority of our resident animals cannot be released due to a variety of reasons, so you will see them in permanent habitats and learn their rescue stories. You’ll also see a number of animals receiving daily medical care or undergoing rehabilitation in our working animal hospital. Conservation & Research Clearwater Marine Aquarium is a leader in marine mammal research and environmental conservation throughout Florida and the world. From monitoring the health and population of dolphins in the Gulf of Mexico to implementing conservation strategies to protect the manatee species in the Caribbean, our team collaborates with scientific partners across the globe to protect marine animals and their habitats.
