    Actually yes, the CA dept. of Fish and Game. They will want to know so they can pick them up and they will be able (maybe) to find out if the deaths were caused by toxins or old age or poaching or whatever and they can use that information to help the sea lion population. If you would be so kind as to call (562) 430-7212. If they don’t do anything with them, they’ll at least notify the US Fish & Wildlife Agency so they can be investigated or even just added to statistics… anyway, it would be appreciated. Thank you, and have a good day. Take care…

    call your local animal wildlife people they will care…
    especially if there are two of them ….there may be some reason they died that might be harming other animals in that area as well.
    I would report this if I were you~ ASAP

    Call the California Marine Mammal Center
    415.289.SEAL (7325) http://www.tmmc.org/
    Do NOT go near them or touch them. They could be diseased.

    Im sure you could find some Wildlife Management organization to tell. Or, you could call the Road-kill Cafe. They might have a tasty recipe.

    Fish and game will want to investigate their cause of death. Look in the blue pages of your phone book and call them to make a report. It is illegal to kill sea lions in CA and they will want to know wether they died with help or of natural causes.

    Yes, report it. Call the California State Park, or seek out a Park Ranger. They will know who to call.

    There should a beach patroll that handles that type of thing. I think you could call the fire department and they can refer you to a number to call. Dont call 911

    Yes, you should definitely call animal control. The sea lions have died for some unknown reason (I think), and the authorities should have the opportunity to check them out so that more sea lions don’t wash up on the beach dead. Also, leaving them there can cause a serious disease problem. Please notify either Animal Control or the Police.
