Noel, an approx. 4 months old male grey seal pup, was rescued from Happisburgh beach on 20th March 2016 after concerned members of the public found him hauled out looking poorly. He was found with bite wounds to rear flipper and suffering from lungworm. Noel weighed 32kgs.

With lots of attention from the Animal Care Team, hopefully the pup will make a full recovery and be returned to the wild later this year. Update - 12th April 2016 : Photo above and left of Noel were taken on 11th April 2016, in the hospital´s pen No. 3. Click here to see a larger photo of this and above.
