Read our privacy policy A grey seal pup was found injured and starving on a beach, with a heart drawn around him in the sand. The pup, named Curry, was taken to the Cornish Seal Sanctuary after being rescued from the beach in west Cornwall last month. It will no doubt be a busy season ahead, so any help we can get to buy pup supplies will be much appreciated Tamara Cooper, curator for the Cornish Seal Sanctuary “Pups also need time to rest and conserve energy, so getting too close can result in them being frightened back into the water, which can cause them to waste precious energy and be injured – particularly if they are startled off rocks. The Cornish Seal Sanctuary works to save grey seal pups from around the Cornish coastline, seeing around 80 pups from September to March each year.
