The Cornish Seal Sanctuary says the pups are at 'huge risk' of disturbance in August.
Two seal pups were rescued from Cornish beaches in the past weekThe charity said the arrival of the seal pups marked an early start to the rescue seasonPublishedThe seal rescue season has begun early in Cornwall with the arrival of two pups at the Cornish Seal Sanctuary.
It said one found on Saturday at Mawgan Porth - and named Hugh Grant - was the first common seal to arrive at the sanctuary since 2019. Elliot Badrick, senior animal care specialist for the sanctuary, said: “It’s hard for the pups at this time of year. He said young grey seal pups which still have their white coats are much more vulnerable, meaning extra precautions are needed in its hospital to ensure they rest and put on weight for a healthy recovery.
