Spotted at Skerries Harbour, a very curious Grey Seal. Its quite common to spot Grey Seals along the Fingal coastline. If you have photographed any of the Seals we would love to see them, post in the comments below. #skerries #seals #fingal @LoveFingalDub @EVENTSinFingal pic.twitter.com/A85LzDwEgp

Two seal pups, Lilo and Tinkerbell, were released back into the sea… Tinkerbell was the smallest pup they’ve had to nurse at 6.5kg when found.B oth were found along the Galway coast and nursed in Wexford and returned to familiar seas. The two women who found the pups got the honour of opening the container box / cage to set them free in the sea again.It was quite lovely in fairness :)
Baked again.

Two seals were discovered on Tramore Beach, Co Waterford (above) during the past 24 hours with gunshot wounds.
From Irish Seal Sanctuary
The Irish Seal Sanctuary was horrified to learn that adult grey seals were coming ashore dying from bullet wounds to their heads. The first, a mature bull seal had been shot with what appears to be a .22 bullet to the head. Had this been an authorised shooting under license from the NPWS [National Parks and Wildlife Service] it would have been shot with a weapon capable of killing it outright.
