Yesterday the BDLMR rescued the second poorly seal pup in Jersey this week.

After a stay at New Era Vets she was transported to Guernsey this morning and is now in an intensive care unit

Geoff George GSPCA Head of Marine Mammals said “Today's 430 am new arrival is Jen or Jem as we’ve nicknamed her is a grey seal pup from Jersey.”

“She is very, very poorly and only 11kg.”

“She's about 2 weeks older than Faulkner who arrived yesterday and is much bigger despite the age difference.”

“We are really worried for her as she is so poorly.”
