Seals

Cleethorpes Wildlife Rescue says the onlooker was right to raise the alarm over her concerns.

The charity says a tonne of salt is used by a wildlife centre every few days to treat the animals.

Wide Awake will join three other seal pups that require 24 hour care.

Leaf Blower was found "severely malnourished"and injured in Carbis Bay at the start of January.

Medics at The North East Seal Triage unit say they have worked "non-stop" since opening.

The seal was found with a severe neck injury at a beach near Flamborough in East Yorkshire.

Conservationists say they hope buoys will raise awareness about keeping a distance from animals.

The seal was first spotted by Yorkshire Wildlife Trust's marine experts during a recent seal survey.
