Two weeks ago British Divers Marine Life Rescue (BDMLR) Jersey rescued a poorly seal pup spotted on Les Écréhous.
Joey at a very thin 18kgs was cared for over night at New Era Vets before being transported to Guernsey.

Geoff George Head of Marine Mammals at the GSPCA said “Joey continues to improve and we are caring for him around the clock.”
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager “As he has mentioned Geoff has been caring for Joey around the clock and we are so pleased to see how he is doing after two weeks of care.”
“With a long way to go before he is ready for the wild we need continued support for him and the 100’s of animals in our care.”
“He will need a lot of treatment and fish and anyone wanting to donate to his care please call 01481 257261, at the GSPCA, Rue des Truchots, St Andrews, Guernsey GY6 8UD or online https://giving.gg/donate/event/5876/GSPCA-Coronavirus-Emergency-Appeal .”

“We really couldn’t do so much without your support and every penny really helps make a difference.”
“As we keep sharing we are in the middle of seal pup season now in the Channel Islands and if you see a seal pup please do not approach it but do take a picture and send it in and give us a call so we know where they are and assess they are okay.”
“By approaching a seal pup you could scare its mother away and put the pup at risk so please keep a very safe distance and do not allow your dogs anywhere near them.”
