Release Day for Harbor seal #23-027

On February 27th, we responded to a call for an injured seal stranded along the Delaware Bay in Fortescue, Cumberland County. The female Harbor seal had several new and old wounds, including fresh puncture wounds on her stomach. She was brought back to MMSC for treatment. Her intake weight was 45lbs. After nearly six weeks of care at the Marine Mammal Stranding Center, she gained over 20lbs and was ready to be released back into the wild!

It is because of kind-hearted individuals like YOU that make our work possible. Without your support and donations, we would not be able to carry out our mission of the Rescue, Rehabilitation, and Release of marine mammals and sea turtles. With your help, we can provide these animals with the care they need to heal and give them the second chance at life in the wild that they deserve.
