Today is a raining day but we decided to take a walk on the beach anyway. My sister and her husband were up ahead of us and came across these two baby seals on the beach:
We didn't see any sign of their mom and one of them looked like it had an injury. None of us had a cell phone or camera (I took these later), so I ran back to the house to call for help.
We stayed on the beach to warn people to keep their distance and tell people with dogs to turn back.
It was heartbreaking, waiting for the rescuers to arrive. I admit, I cried.
But finally, help arrived. Here is my new hero:
She asked us to leave because she didn't want to distress the pups any more than they already were. Luckily it's a rainy day so there are very few people out walking on the beach.
I don't know what will happen to the pups. She was honest, and said they had a 50-50 chance. So, I'm saying a prayer for these poor little guys and hope they beat the odds. Hope you will too. Thanks.
