I just returned from a nice vacation in Florida a few days ago. While there my wife and I decided to forfeit our dive time and volunteered at the Marine Mammal Conservancy in Key Largo Florida. There was a group of Pilot Whales that stranded off Cudjoe Key on May 5th. They need volunteers to hold the whales in the water as well as donations of items and or money. This was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had and this is a rare opportunity for individuals to be hands on with Pilot Whales. It is also a chance for individuals to make a difference they can see. These beautiful animals desperately need your help!

This is not my video, but this is a video of the whales. Unfortunately there are only 3 whales left as one fell so ill it had to be euthanized.
