Story

Maple Walnut was found in Chemainus and first seen on the back of a tug boat for 3 days and then began sitting on logs that were headed to the saw mill. Since no mother in sight, he was rescued and taken to IWNCC on July 14th, and then came to us via Harbour Air on July 16th along with 3 other pups.

Look at Maple Walnut in the pre-release pool! He's now in the largest pool, and since he's gained plenty of weight since he was admitted, he's on track to be released soon!

Looks like Maple Walnut has a friend! He's now living in one of the largest pre-release pools with lots of other harbour seals.

Maple Walnut has been moved to a larger pre-release pool with lots of new friends!
