Erris Seals Back in the Wild

Whitecoat seal pups Snowy and Cecil were finally returned to the wild on Tuesday after their original Saturday release was postponed.
The two seals, who were reabilitated by the Irish Seal Sanctuary at Courtown Harbour after being found on the Erris Peninsula last October, were released from Blacksod Point.
Mayo Today has photos of the successful release HERE.
