Patient Updates
Charleston is learning how to perfect his fish eating skills while competing with other seals. He is just waiting to gain a little more weight before he is ready for release!
Charleston has made it into a pre-release pool! Not long now until he can be returned into the wild.
I just love all the names this season. So glad you are able to take care of so many innocent seal pups. Charleston you are at MMRC a place that takes care of your species. They will help you grow big and strong so be brave for them okay? Sending you lots of happy thoughts and prayers.
