We would like to Thank everyone who joined us at the Wildlife Jewels King Tides Sweep and Learn for Wildlife walk in Corona Del Mar!
Your participation has made a significant impact in protecting our invaluable wildlife. Together, we’ve helped prevent them from ingesting tiny plastic fragments, thin plastic wraps, Styrofoam, chocolate, charcoal, bottle caps, chips & candy wrappers, plastic utensils, and from getting entangled in fishing lines or trapped in plastic wrap. We've also removed glass pieces from the sand that could cause injuries. Your contribution in removing these items from the beach is invaluable, as every piece of debris poses a threat to wildlife.
During our walk, we had the pleasure of observing beautiful birds like the Western Gull, California Gull, Heermann’s Gull, and California Brown Pelicans. We also explored the tide pools during one of the lowest tides of the year, and discovered fascinating sea life, including horseshoe crabs, sea anemones, sea slugs, and more.
Sadly, we also encountered a beautiful Gull who was missing one foot, with the other tightly wrapped in a fishing line. Concerned volunteers observed her at the start of the event. To our surprise, as we wrapped up the cleanup, she flew towards our group, landed nearby, and watched us as if she was asking for help. Witnessing this was a heartbreaking reminder of the devastating impact marine debris has on our precious wildlife. Every animal matters, and it’s a call to action for all of us to help protect them. Over the past few months, we've observed a significant increase in the number of gulls with missing feet and/or entangled in fishing line during our coastal wildlife monitoring efforts. Every animal matters, and it’s a call to action for all of us to help protect them.

Fishing Gear
Every day, countless seabirds, sea turtles, and marine mammals suffer injuries or lose their lives due to entanglement in fishing lines and hooks. This includes the tragic consequence of swallowing fishing hooks.
Hooks and lines caught in debris can lead to devastating entanglements for animals, causing injuries to legs, wings, and beaks of birds. A single hook caught in a beak or mouth can be devastating leading to starvation and death.
Thanks to the dedication of our participants, we were able to locate and remove fishing lines and at least one fishing hook during our clean-up in Corona Del Mar. This debris poses a significant threat to seabirds and shorebirds, especially as lines and hooks become ensnared in branches and seaweed along the shoreline— where these birds search for food.
By picking up debris, even just one fishing hook, you are making a difference saving wildlife!

Together, we removed harmful debris such as:
Charcoal and nails
Plastic fragments and bottle caps
Rope, Styrofoam, candy wrappers, plastic utensils, and more..
Each piece removed represents one less hazard for wildlife, preventing potential injuries or ingestion that can be life-threatening.

Your participation has been instrumental in preventing precious wildlife from ingesting tiny plastic pieces, getting entangled in fishing hooks and lines, and becoming trapped in plastic wrap. We appreciate your dedication to cleaning the beach and protecting our invaluable wildlife.
Throughout the walk, we witnessed the impact of our efforts as we collected various harmful debris, including tiny plastic fragments, large plastic film, candy wrappers, plastic cups, bottles, cigarette butts, plastic forks, fishing lines, fishing hook, and much more. Your contribution in removing these items from the beach is invaluable, as every piece of debris poses a threat to wildlife.
We were treated to sightings of stunning seabirds and shorebirds, including the Western Gull, Heermann's Gull, and Sanderlings. However, we also observed potential threats to seabirds, such as beach attendees feeding gulls bread and nuts, as well as unleashed dogs running on the beach.
More photos from the event and information about the beautiful birds and the life-threatening impacts of some of the debris we picked up on wildlife will be shared with you soon.
We're excited to share that we have several events and clean-ups planned to celebrate Earth Month! If you're interested in learning more about these events and participating, please feel free to contact us. We'd love to have you join us!
