10/02/2017 - PUP SEASON AT THE CORNISH SEAL SANCTUARY

February 2017

One of the great things to do half term in Cornwall 2017 is visit one of Cornwall's leading attractions, the Cornish Seal Sanctuary. Seal mating season begins around September time, this also coincides with rougher seas and storms approaching. What this means is that during this time we get a lot of seal pup call outs. The BDMLR, the RSPCA and the Cornish Seal Sanctuary rescue between 40 and 60 pups each year. As the leading Seal Rescue Centre in Europe and the only one in Cornwall we then become home to these pups while they are rehabilitated until they are ready for release. The team here provides round-the-clock care throughout the 'pup rescue season' (usually September - March) to get them back to full health so they can go back out into the wild where they should be. Our hospital and pools will be full and it's the perfect time to for a visit. The Seal Sanctuary is dog friendly attraction in Cornwall.
