Guestbook for Wobble Chonk

  1. We are all very happy to see Wobbly Chonk is safe from the predators who were encircling this little girl! She was so tired and exhausted from dodging the seagulls and ravens.

    Thank-you Vancouver Aquarium MArine Mammal Rescue. We will come and visit the Aquarium soon !

  2. Wobble Chonk!!! Also known as Lucky!! This little guy came from the float camp that my husband, Chris Von Niessen is working at. All the employees worked together to save this little seal. Good job, everybody! May he live long and prosper.

  3. Miss WC is adorable – much love from the MMR twitch community. Cheering for her to chonk up real fast.

  5. I would like to thank France from M.A.R.S. rescue. France met me at the CR airport with the proper crate for Wobbles and made sure she got on her plane to Vancouver. Also like to thank Brenda from MMR for organizing and overseeing the trip for Wobbles to her new home. Wobbles I wish you the best of luck in your new adventures!

    Sincerely
    John
