The main event – seals!
After the penguin’s feeding time, we moved on to the different seal pools. There are different types of seals in the sanctuary such as sea lions, common seals and grey seals. All extremely adorable. I tried to contain my excitement but you should know this by now, I LOVE SEALS!
We were greeted by Phil, a great guide that told us a bit about the lives of the resident seals. At the time we were there, most were female and one male named Ray. Ray has had some brain damage but it doesn’t stop him from goofing around and having a good time. That’s why if you ever meet Ray, you’ll see he’s doing things that seals don’t normally do. It’s so interesting to watch.
If you ever find yourself in Cornwall, make sure you find the time to check the Seal Sanctuary. It’s great for the whole family and of course the animals love the company and attention, in rain and in shine!
Cool! They are so cute! So what kind of things does Ray do?
I had to dig this up for you, but here’s a funny example: https://www.instagram.com/p/BlqDpMdllJg/
