Patient Updates
Floyd may be in our largest pool but he is always the easiest to spot, he has more freckles and speckles of any seal on site!
You can’t miss Floyd! He has more freckles than any seal on site and is always front and center waiting for fish at meal time.
Floyd seems to be enjoying his big-pool status and is always staying close enough to the pool to dip his nose in. We don't blame him!
Floyd is being housed in the comfort tent where we can make him most comfortable. He is gaining weight and we are slowly increasing the amount of formula he is getting each day.
So glad you are still alive Floyd. Wishing you health I will adopt you and keep hoping you fatten up, get stronger and can be released soon. I am so glad I found you on that beach and got you to the good people at MMRA
