Communities Are Doin' It For Themselves!
The main attraction at a northern seal haul out was causing a mass disturbance. Fortunately, local conservationists worked to create an alternative and better visitor experience that could offer the opportunity for wildlife to thrive?
Give Seals Space!
The UK is home to 38% of the entire world’s population of grey seals and 30% of the European subspecies of common seals. These precious mammals face an extensive list of threats including climate change, toxic pollution, overfishing, entanglement, boat strike, plastics and other marine pollution. Of these issues, disturbance from human interaction is a significant and growing problem, but equally the easiest to solve. We can all take action today, by just giving seals space!
My Ray of Light
I had this strange feeling of being watched and looked to my right. My feelings were correct, as just below me was this little seal treading water looking directly up at me.
