About the company
Texas Marine Mammal Stranding Network (TMMSN), a non-profit organization based in Galveston, Texas, serves as the sole dedicated marine mammal stranding response organization in Texas. Operating since its registration with the federal government in 2006, TMMSN provides critical response, rehabilitation, and data collection services for stranded marine mammals along the Texas coast, which encompasses 5,406 kilometers of tidal shoreline in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. The organization delivers essential scientific and wildlife conservation services through federal grant support, focusing on marine mammal rescue operations, veterinary care, and research activities that directly support federal marine resource management objectives.
TMMSN has received consecutive Project Grant awards from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Marine Mammal Data Program (CFDA 11.439), demonstrating sustained federal recognition of its operational importance. The organization's grant-funded services include rapid recovery and necropsy of deceased marine mammals with collection of Level A, B, and C data on disease, human interaction, and unusual findings; veterinary health assessments and diagnostic screening for live stranded animals with rehabilitation or humane euthanasia as appropriate; disentanglement efforts for entangled cetaceans and monitoring of out-of-habitat dolphins in Texas and Louisiana; and public education initiatives on marine mammal conservation. Recent awards have expanded to include compensation and mental health training for responders to ensure workforce sustainability, along with travel support for critical care teams conducting field operations. Over the past five fiscal years, TMMSN has received five prime grant awards totaling approximately $931,375, with individual awards ranging from $136,103 (2021-2022) to $268,206 (2022-2023), indicating stable federal funding relationships and recognition as an essential partner in NOAA's marine mammal monitoring and protection mission.
