SDAA has been involved for a number of years in ongoing efforts to protect the unique harbor seal rookery at Casa Beach in La Jolla. We prepare and distribute educational materials including brochures, fliers, newspaper and radio advertisements, as well as conducting demonstrations and speaking to legislative bodies about the issue. We have paid for security guards when needed and SDAA supporters volunteer at the beach to help educate tourists about the importance of letting the seals rest on the beach undisturbed.
