Thank you to our partners National Marine Life Center for taking such great care of these #harborseal pups, and letting us tag along for their release on July 23, 2024. This video follows our team as we trek from Rye, NH to Plymouth, MA for the release.

S'mores (on the left, with our intern Lauren assisting) was rescued by our team in Rockport, MA in early May. Chunky Monkey was rescued by our partners Allied Whale at the College of the Atlantic in mid-May and our team was one leg of the relay that helped transport this pup down to NMLC for care. When rescued both of these seal pups were maternally dependent and the team at NMLC helped care for them during this early stage to ensure they were healthy and ready to return home.

We are part of the Greater Atlantic Region Stranding Network and are fortunate to work alongside many wonderful organizations in our wildlife conservation efforts. Seeing these pups come full circle and return to the ocean was worth the drive south from our Rye, NH home base to Plymouth, MA, and it is our pleasure to share our release day story.
