Mexico Marine Animal Alert still in effect

Seeing the continued strandings on the Mexican Pacific coastal line is concerning. The airburst on December 20 has done considerable damage. I'm surprised there has not been a mass stranding of cetaceans, however, sometimes it can take months for them to come ashore.
