A wildlife crisis is playing out in the bay area and along the california coast. Thousands of pelicans are starving to death inside his do not seem to know why. This video is from Huntington Beach and from Santa Barbara county where it is the same story. Wildlife rescues overwhelmed with the emaciated birds with more arriving every single day. One local rescue center is desperately appealing to the public for help. John ramos has the story. Reporter this public open house at the International Bird rescue in fairfield it almost not happen but they went through with it anyway because they thought it was important for the public to understand the crisis they are dealing with. The International Bird rescue center is a accustomed to dealing with injured or sick birds but what began slowly in april has suddenly become overwhelming. We are going back and forth. Is this a thing or not . Over the last four or five days, things just cratered. The first time in 10 years, the most pelicans i have seen. Reporter brown pelicans are the birds easy at the beach skimming over the water information like a squadron of fighter planes. But lately they have been found wandering in unusual places, unable to fly away from people. One bird we have in care right now came in from santa cruz and it had tried to walk into a bar , near the boardwalk. These birds are disoriented. Reporter they are not sick, they are starving. For some reason that remains a mystery, the birds cannot find the fish they need to survive. To eat the same diet as other birds but it is only the pelicans that are being brought in by the dozens. One of the things that will be relied on is ocean scientists and avian folks to figure out why the fishing stop stock is alluding them. Some of them are coming in less than half of the body weight they are supposed to be. Imagine human going through that. Youre supposed to weigh 150 pounds and you come in at 75 pounds, you will have some severe problems. Reporter center has 120 pelicans and is expecting another 30 to 40s in a few days, as a result the rescue center is facing a crisis of its own. The birds respond well to the food of items they are getting, but they cannot be released into the wild until there is a food supply for them. It is putting a major drain on the centers finances. Right now, we are going through 500 pounds of fish a day. That is about 1000 a day. You can start to multiply that out. Reporter they are asking for help. Donations to help pay for food, and volunteers to help care for so many patients. Especially for crisis like this where we take in this many birds , we need as many hands on deck as we can get. Volunteers are the backbone of this organization. Reporter no one knows for sure why this is happening or when it may end, pelicans burn a lot of calories and can die within days with no food. So the theories, for each of the birds that have been captured and safe, many more have already perished in the wild. Coming up in sports. The as looking to avoid dropping backtoback series.
