 After white-sided dolphins became stranded in Wellfleet on Cape Cod, a team of researchers worked together to perform necropsies on eight of the animals in the necropsy facility in the Marine Research Facility at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Andrea Bogomolni, center (facing camera), took samples from the dolphins to analyze for the presence of disease-causing and zoonotic organisms, part of a large-scale survey of seabirds, marine mammals, and sharks on the East coast.
