Porpoise recovering at Marine Mammal Center

KPIX-TV news footage from July 11, 1977 featuring brief scenes of a porpoise being treated at the Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, CA. Includes views of staff working with the porpoise in a pool and an interview in which one of them explains how the porpoise's recovery is progressing. A note in the original KPIX newsfilm log states that this porpoise was originally found on a beach on Angel Island but we're unable to verify this. Established in 1975, the center is now the world's largest marine mammal hospital. Opening graphic designed by Carrie Hawks.
