Seal entangled by fishing gear rescued from Cape Cod Canal
Wicked Local
BUZZARDS BAY - Recently, a seal was seen on the rocks along the Cape Cod Canal with fishing gear around his neck and flippers.
The International Fund for Animal Welfare, one of the organizations authorized to rescue animals, responded. The rescue was difficult because of the animal’s location, but IFAW was able to retrieve him by boat and brought him to the National Marine Life Center for rehabilitation.
Upon examination by the staff and veterinarian at NMLC, it was found that Atlas (named after the Greek God and bearer of the heavens) had more problems than just the entanglement.
