Marine debris is a global threat to marine species. This tool allows animal rescue teams, wildlife resource officers, and community members in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia to document interactions between animals and marine debris. The data are stored in one place, allowing natural resources agencies to study how marine debris affects wildlife populations and to develop solutions.
