1997/98 Rescued Seals Returned to the Wild
|
Smee was finally released in the early morning at a secret location
on the Cornish Coast. We managed to avoid the usual crowds of people you
find during the summer, and with a couple of bobs in the water, Smee swam
off out to sea.

CLANGER - FRANK - FLEUR at Church Cove
|
Clanger and Frank were released back into the wild on 23rd September at Church
Cove. The two of them have been totally in separable in the convalescent
pool over the Summer, and Frank carried on in true style during the release,
by riding down the beach on Clanger´s back in to the water! |
SANDY - GEORGE - ORINOCO at Godrevy |
ZIPPY - MADELEINE - JEFFREY at Praa Sands |
JEREMY - FRAGGLE - FLORENCE - PETER PAN - ZEBEDEE

ATTILLA - BUNGLE - RAINBOW - SNORKEL - DOUGAL - NANNA at Porthtowan |
GABRIELLA - RUDOLF |
The conditions were absolutely perfect for a release at Port Gaverne, and it is a beautiful
place, but LOOBY-LOO, SUNSHINE, HOOK and TINKERBELL, the seal pups, decided to make it hard for us. It took ages to get
them into the water, because all they wanted to do was go up the beach, or
hide under the Landrover! Tinkerbell was especially difficult, but after
a bit of messing around in the water, she finally went off into the distance
with Sunshine. |
