Report Emergencies and Illegal Activities
To report dead or injured marine mammals/sea turtles, saltwater fish kills, poachers, polluters, or another emergency call 1-800-241-4113
 Sea Turtles
It is unlawful to harm, harass, or disturb any sea turtle adult, hatchling, eggs, nest, carcass, or skeletal remains under both State and Federal law. It is also unlawful to offer for sale, sell, or possess any sea turtle, or sea turtle parts. If any accidental capture occurs, release immediately either by direct release or by cutting any hook and line as close to the turtle as possible. Report any dead or injured sea turtle to the Georgia DNR, Nongame Wildlife/Natural Heritage Section, Endangered Wildlife Program 800-2-SAVE-ME.
 Marine Mammals
It is unlawful for any person to display, feed, net, trap, harpoon, molest or otherwise interfere with the well-being or normal activity of marine mammals including bottle-nose & spotted dolphin, manatee, and any species of whale. Report sightings of dead or injured marine mammals to 800-241-4113.
Don't let the actions of a few outlaws tarnish the reputation of Georgia's sportsmen and women. Turn in poachers and polluters to protect the future of fishing and hunting. When reporting, try to get as much information as possible: What occured; Where it occurred; Who was involved (describe persons,names if known, vehicles - license numbers are crucial, names of witnesses); and When it occurred.
