Today, several news sources reported that Bruce will be returned to the San Diego Bay today! He has apparently recovered from his multiple injuries and severe dehydration, and has bulked up to a respectable 300 pounds.
Here are some of the brief articles sharing this great news!
With any luck, I'll get to see Bruce again this year, as NOAA's monitoring in the South Bay will begin in the coming weeks. I'll keep you posted!
