Pacman, an approx. nine months old male common seal pup, was rescued from Mundesley beach by Stephanie one of the volunteers and a member of the British Divers Marine Life Rescue (BDMLR) medics team. He was suffering from lungworm and tapeworm. Pacman weighed just 19.5kgs when he first arrived in the hospital, which is very small for his age , he should weigh about 70kgs.

With lots of attention from the Animal Care Team, hopefully the seal will make a full recovery and be returned to the wild later this year. Update - 12th April 2016 : Photo left and above of Pacman were taken on 10th April 2016, in the hospital´s pen No. 4. He is very popular with the visitors.
