The <a href=\"http:\/\/cwf-fcf.org\/en\/explore-our-work\/education\/programs\/wild-about-sports\/rescues.html\" target=\"_blank\">Canadian Marine Animal Response Alliance<\/a> (CMARA) reminds us to keep a minimum distance of 100 metres from marine animals (200m in marine protected areas) and to reduce your vessel\u2019s speed around any sighted animals. CMARA also recommends that we avoid known critical habitat areas, and report any marine animal accidents to your local response network.
