0:33Now PlayingWhen a young seal was spotted napping on a New Jersey road on Feb. 24, the Marine Mammal Stranding Center sent help.
“It seems this pup wasn’t successfully feeding herself, dropping back down to close to birth weight by the time she completed her 300+ mile marathon swim south from the pupping grounds in Canada and New England to New Jersey,” the Marine Mammal Stranding Center shared in an update.
The organization is now providing care to the seal, including nutritional support.
