This baby seal ran aground on Lacanau beach -
association Vénus
They joined forces to ensure the rescue of this baby seal, stranded on a beach in Lacanau, in Gironde.
The association for the defense of animals Venus, tells how she was contacted by a couple of walkers, who fell on the animal on Monday afternoon, rejected by the ocean.
“A couple and their dog came across this baby seal in distress, a wildlife organization told us to leave it on the beach” explains the association, which immediately contacted the Lacanau firefighters.
The animal was then transferred to the care center of the Ligue de protection des oiseaux (LPO) Aquitaine, located in Audenge, which provided first aid.
It was then taken to the aquarium in Biarritz (Pyrénées-Atlantiques), where it will continue to be treated since the seal bore traces of bite, before being released into the wild.
