The unexpected encounter!

On this Monday morning in November, a walker crossed the path of a young seal on the way to the wild coast in Quiberon, in Morbihan.

She filmed the unlikely scene and shared it on social media.

Undoubtedly exhausted by the strong swell of the high tides of the weekend, the animal seems at the end of its strength.

The walker alerted the firefighters to take charge of the young seal, which was a hundred meters from the sea, according to Le Télégramme.

I'm leaving for my morning run when suddenly: a seal!

What a nice surprise 😍 I called the Quiberon fire department and they put it back in the water!

According to her, the rescue would have allowed the animal to regain its natural element without hindrance.

The daily explains that it is possible that the animal was carried by the strong waves that hit the Breton coast during this high tide weekend.
