Given the remote, rugged areas belugas typically inhabit and the low rehabilitation success rate with any cetacean, it is rare to have the opportunity to rescue a live-stranded beluga. The Alaska SeaLife Center cared for two stranded beluga calves with two different outcomes. In 2012, a neonatal male beluga calf (DL1202) stranded following intense storms in Bristol Bay. In 2017, a helicopter pilot discovered a stranded male beluga calf (DL1705) during a flight over Cook Inlet. The Alaska SeaLife Center transported both calves for rehabilitation and utilized supportive care plans based on those for other species of stranded cetaceans and care of neonatal belugas at zoological facilities. Diagnostics included complete blood counts, serum chemistries, microbial cultures, hearing tests, imaging and morphometric measurements to monitor systemic health. Treatments included in-pool flotation support; antimicrobials; gastrointestinal support; and close monitoring of respirations, urination, defecation and behaviour. After three weeks of supportive care, the Bristol Bay calf (DL1202) succumbed to sepsis secondary to a possible prematurity-related lack of passive transfer of antibodies. After seven weeks, the Cook Inlet calf (DL1705) recovered and all medications were discontinued. Unable to survive on his own, he was declared non-releasable and placed in long-term care at a zoological facility, to live with other belugas. Aspects and details from successful cases of cetacean critical care become important references especially vital for the survival of essential animals in small, endangered populations.

搁浅的白鲸(Delphinapterus leucas)小牛反应和护理:两个不同结果的案例报告

鉴于白鲸通常栖息在偏远崎岖的地区,并且任何鲸类的康复成功率都较低,因此很少有机会营救被搁浅的白鲸。阿拉斯加海洋生物中心照顾了两只搁浅的白鲸小牛,它们有两种不同的结果。2012 年,一只新生雄性白鲸小牛 (DL1202) 在布里斯托尔湾的强风暴后搁浅。2017 年,一名直升机飞行员在库克湾上空飞行时发现了一头搁浅的雄性小白鲸 (DL1705)。阿拉斯加海洋生物中心运送了两只小牛进行康复治疗,并利用其他搁浅鲸类动物的支持性护理计划和动物设施中的新生白鲸护理计划。诊断包括全血细胞计数、血清化学、微生物培养、听力测试、成像和形态测量以监测全身健康。治疗包括池内浮选支持;抗菌剂;胃肠支持;密切监测呼吸、排尿、排便和行为。经过三周的支持性护理,布里斯托尔湾小牛 (DL1202) 死于败血症,原因是可能与早产相关的抗体被动转移不足。七周后,Cook Inlet 小牛 (DL1705) 康复,所有药物均已停用。由于无法独自生存,他被宣布不可释放,并被安置在动物设施的长期护理中,与其他白鲸一起生活。鲸类重症监护成功案例的各个方面和细节成为重要的参考资料,对于濒临灭绝的小种群中基本动物的生存尤其重要。密切监测呼吸、排尿、排便和行为。经过三周的支持性护理,布里斯托尔湾小牛 (DL1202) 死于败血症,原因是可能与早产相关的抗体被动转移不足。七周后,Cook Inlet 小牛 (DL1705) 康复,所有药物均已停用。由于无法独自生存,他被宣布不可释放,并被安置在动物设施的长期护理中,与其他白鲸一起生活。鲸类重症监护成功案例的各个方面和细节成为重要的参考资料,对于濒临灭绝的小种群中基本动物的生存尤其重要。密切监测呼吸、排尿、排便和行为。经过三周的支持性护理,布里斯托尔湾小牛 (DL1202) 死于败血症,原因是可能与早产相关的抗体被动转移不足。七周后,Cook Inlet 小牛 (DL1705) 康复,所有药物均已停用。由于无法独自生存,他被宣布不可释放,并被安置在动物设施的长期护理中,与其他白鲸一起生活。鲸类重症监护成功案例的各个方面和细节成为重要的参考资料,对于濒临灭绝的小种群中基本动物的生存尤其重要。布里斯托尔湾小牛 (DL1202) 死于败血症,继发于可能与早产相关的抗体被动转移不足。七周后,Cook Inlet 小牛 (DL1705) 康复,所有药物均已停用。由于无法独自生存,他被宣布不可释放,并被安置在动物设施的长期护理中,与其他白鲸一起生活。鲸类重症监护成功案例的各个方面和细节成为重要的参考资料,对于濒临灭绝的小种群中基本动物的生存尤其重要。布里斯托尔湾小牛 (DL1202) 死于败血症,继发于可能与早产相关的抗体被动转移不足。七周后,Cook Inlet 小牛 (DL1705) 康复,所有药物均已停用。由于无法独自生存,他被宣布不可释放,并被安置在动物设施的长期护理中,与其他白鲸一起生活。鲸类重症监护成功案例的各个方面和细节成为重要的参考资料,对于濒临灭绝的小种群中基本动物的生存尤其重要。
