    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued a permit to Leslie Hart, Ph.D., from the College of Charleston, allowing her to import, export, and receive marine mammal parts for scientific research. This permit, valid from March 25, 2025, to March 31, 2030, covers parts from up to 700 cetaceans and 700 pinnipeds per year, excluding walruses. The permit aims to support research on marine mammals' exposure to microplastics. The activity is considered environmentally safe, and ensures compliance with various wildlife protection laws like the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act.

    Simple Explanation

    The government gave Leslie, a scientist, permission to collect parts of sea animals like dolphins and seals from different places to study them and see how tiny plastics are affecting them. They promise to do this safely and follow rules meant to protect these animals and their environments.
