Seal Release

Princess and Silver to be released-see Pauline's email below for details:

Princess Saltee and Carol Silver, two grey seal pups rescued and 
rehabilitated by the Irish Seal Sanctuary, will be returned to the
wild, in full health on Saturday 29th November, St. Helen's Bay, Co
Wexford at 2pm.

All are welcome to attend.

Princess Saltee, was rescued on the Saltees by local birdwatchers and
ferrymen and brought by our local volunteer, Kevin McCormack to
Dublin for care at the Irish Seal Sanctuary. She won the hearts of
all the volunteers at the ISS, both international and local.

Carol, was named Silver by the volunteers due to her beautiful white
coat, indicating her juvenile age, she had a sweet personality and
was a pleasure for them to take care of, despite her emaciated state.

Both seals have made a great recovery and are fighting fit and ready
to go back to the wild.
