Seal Marine Conservation - A day at Seal Rescue Ireland

Seal Marine Conservation - A day at Seal Rescue Ireland

In this episode we arrive in Courtown. As you know we love marine conservation and we had the opportunity to visit Seal Rescue Ireland.

We were really excited to be given this opportunity to learn about Seal Marine Conservation and to learn lots of interesting facts about seals.

There is only one seal sanctuary and rescue centre in the whole of the Republic of Ireland. This is a real challenge for Seal Rescue Ireland as it is such a large area to cover.

We were met by Melanie, Jesh and the team. It was so nice of Operations Manager - Melanie to spend so much of her valuable time with us giving us lots of interesting and educational facts on seals.

It was a fabulous day meeting the seals and hearing about the dangers they face and how Seal Rescue Ireland are working hard to save these wonderful animals and to educate the public on what they can do to help prevent these issues.

We were honoured to be able to watch and film 3 seals release back into the sea. The first one was Maui. He was one Lucy seal. He was found with fishing line around this neck and would have died without the care provided by Seal Rescue Ireland.

Watching him run down the beach and into the sea was a magical experience and it was actually really emotional.

The following day we headed down to Morriscastle Beach where we were able to see another 2 seals being released.

All of the staff at Seal Rescue Ireland are volunteers giving their time for free to help rehabilitate and educate the public on the seal conservation.

The rescue centre it's self is free so they rely on donations, sponsorships and sales from their shop to fund all of the amazing work that they do.
