a baby seal rescued on the beach

It is the mayor of the commune of Ondres, Eva Belin, who reported it this Wednesday evening on her Facebook page. One-month-old seal pup was rescued on Ondres beach. As usual on the Landes coast, young seals, not yet seasoned, are surprised by the swells and currents in winter. Exhausted, they run aground on the beaches.

This time it was agents of the municipal police of Ondres who secured the young seal and thehealers from the Biarritz aquarium came to collect it. He will be treated before being released in a few weeks if all goes well.
