Alright, so my sister and I were on the beach today and found a stranded anemone. Now, the surf was incredibly strong as well as there being rip tides, so there was no way to return the critter to the ocean. We decided to take it home, as there was no chance it would survive on the beach with the tide going out and such a strong surf.
My question is, is there any way we could transport it back to MA? We were planning on trying to take it on the airplane with us, in our checked luggage in a sealed container filled with some seawater. If there isn't, we're going to humanely put it to sleep quickly and painlessly. We're in FL.
Let me reiterate that there was absolutely no chance it could make it back to a living environment - it had obviously been torn by the waves from whatever rock it lived on further out in the ocean.
