Mirage rescued on 13th December 2010
|
Mirage, an 8 week old seal pup, was rescued from Godrevy Point by Dan and Ally who are part of the animal care team and were assisted by members of the BDMLR team on
13th December 2010.
We received a telephone call about a seal on the rocks which appeared to be caught in some net. The pup was found to be entangled in plastic packaging, he was uplifted and brought here to the National Seal Sanctuary where Mirage was disentangled and found to be malnourished and dehydrated but luckily uninjured.
