A propeller guard assembly for enclosing the propeller blades of a marine propeller to prevent them from striking marine animals. The propeller guard assembly comprises a front cage portion hingedly attached to a back cage portion. The front cage portion and back cage portion are each defined by a plurality of bars extending radially from a center area to a circumferential bar. The front cage portion and back cage portion are hingedly coupled by a hinge, thereby enabling them to swing between an open position and a closed position. When in the closed position, the front cage portion and back cage portion can be selectively fastened together by a fastening clip.
