Stranding hotspots events
The same 8,346 place-level events, clustered into ~65 km localized areas. Bigger circle = more stranding events recorded in that area (i.e. strandings happen there more often); colour = that area's most common outcome. 282 localized areas with 5+ events shown.

Condition at stranding
Condition & behaviour at stranding events
Standardised signs recorded across 2,822 events that logged observations (multi-label — one animal can show several). Source: injuries & behaviours field.

Rate = fate / recorded fates (rescued+died+euthanized). Orgs with 10+ events and 50+ recorded fates only.
Necropsy

Most common findings reports
Categorised from 1,800 necropsy reports (multi-label — one report can list several). Grey = administrative / no substantive finding; green "No cause / nothing conclusive" = nothing wrong found.
Population loss — recorded mortality by species animals
Animals lost (died + euthanized) per species across all recorded strandings. Population baselines and %-of-population are intentionally omitted for now — this shows absolute recorded losses only. Species that could not be identified are grouped as “Unidentified / unassigned”.
