Fall Stranding Season is soon upon us!

Fall Stranding Season is soon upon us. As we approach the fall stranding season, please report your sightings of these unusual New England fish to our online stranding network at www.necwa.org. NECWA is one of the few organizations that rescues these animals when they strand live or necropsies carcasses when they wash ashore. This information is helping us better understand and protect these unusual fish that live in our New England waters. To support this work, please donate today through Facebook or our website at www.necwa.org. NECWA is an all-volunteer nonprofit so this money will be used to purchase needed rescue and research gear and supplies. Last season, NECWA responded to 110 stranded ocean sunfish, 58 stranded torpedo rays, and 45 stranded triggerfish. It was a very busy stranding season and numbers are continuing to climb each year. Thank you!
