In the last month, hundreds of sick and disoriented brown pelicans have been discovered along the West Coast from Southern California to Oregon. Researchers are still trying to determine the exact cause of the widespread and mysterious illness.
If you encounter a sick, disoriented or dead pelican, please call the California Wildlife Hotline at 866-WILD-911. Read more about the sudden illness of pelicans on the West Coast.
