Winterton Seal Hospital (Save Our Seals)

Toby was rescued on 17th November 2009

Toby Toby, a common seal pup, was found on the beach by a member of the public who was walking in a force 6 gale along the beach at Hemsby on 17th November 2009. When our rescue team arrived on the beach, they found the pup to have dog bites, so the decision was taken for the pup to be taken back to the seal hospital for his wounds to be cleaned and treated.

Upon arrival at the seal hospital, the pup's temperature was 37.9° and weighed 45lbs, Toby was found to have lung worm, so antibiotics were given.
Toby is now doing fine and is catching his own fish in the hospital's weaning pool. Soon Toby will be moved to one of the outside pools for the next stage of his rehabilitation and to learn to compete for fish with other rescued seal pups.
