And they wonder what's making the seals sick.

It began in July 2011. Indigenous hunters in Alaska's Arctic noticed ice seals they rely on for food and other uses covered in oozing sores and losing hair. They were sick and some were dying. Ultimately, more than 200 ice seals turned up with similar symptoms, prompting the federal government to declare the phenomena an “unexplained mortality event,” thus opening up research funding and attracting science minds to try to solve the mystery.

Illness plaguing seals and walruses brings disease hunters to Alaska

As of this month, despite the international group of scientists and researchers the declaration pulled together, no cause has been officially identified for the illness plaguing the ice seals.

In the time since the first sick seal was discovered, walruses and polar bears have turned up with similar ailments. The smallest of the species -- seals -- has fared the worst. Polar bears seemed to weather their sickness the best, with no fatalities connected to the illness and no clear clues about whether walruses and polar bears were afflicted with the same disease that had struck the seals.

Curiously, the symptoms seem to have diminished since the first sightings of sick seals and other animals began in mid-2011. And Bruce Wright, a scientist with the Aleutian Pribilof Islands Association, thinks he knows why.

Sunburn.

“I suspected right from the beginning it was UV radiation,” Wright said in an interview from his Anchorage-based office this week. “I was expecting there would be consequences for an ozone hole that had formed over the Arctic.”

The Alaska Dispatch follows up on the mysterious illnesses in seals, wlaruses and polar bears illness (March 13, 2013):

As of this month, despite the international group of scientists and researchers the declaration pulled together, no cause has been officially identified for the illness plaguing the ice seals.

[...] walruses and polar bears have turned up with similar ailments. [...]

Some of the animals were found to also have bleeding and swelling in their lungs, livers, lymph nodes and other internal organs. [...]

Preliminary tests to determine whether exposure from the 2011 Fukushima nuclear plant accident in Japan have also not revealed any answers. More tests on tissue samples for radionuclides associated with the event are being conducted, but those done so far have not yielded any direct connection. [...]

Adding to the puzzle is the fact that the cases have tapered off, suggesting either a viral infection or some unique convergence of multiple factors that hasn’t repeated itself. [...]

And then this today. Laguna Beach is just 30 minutes up the road from me.

Southern Calif. Coast Sees Deluge of Sick Sea Lion Pups


Malnourished sea lions pups line the floors of the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach, Calif., Monday, March 11, 2013, after 18 rescues in the past two days inundated the facility -- putting the current patient count at 84 sea lions.

LAGUNA BEACH, California -- Sick and malnourished sea lion pups are stranding themselves on Southern California beaches in some of the largest numbers seen in over a decade, perplexing scientists and leading one care facility to declare itself near capacity.

Officials at the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach, California, have said they are in emergency mode.
