At Korkeasaari Wildlife Hospital, four grey seal pups are currently receiving care, raising awareness about the plight of these young marine animals along Helsinki’s coastlines. The hospital has become a sanctuary for these pups, often found in distress and separated from their mothers too early in life.
The first of these pups arrived at the hospital in late March from Inkoo, exhibiting their distinctive white pup fur, which serves to keep them warm during their initial weeks of life while they are still dependent on their mothers' milk.
