Core has come a long way since he was first admitted, he a very vocal pup and always has lots to say!
Core is doing great and will be weaned onto fish in the coming weeks!
Core is eating fish all on his own and is now in a pool with 2 other seal pups so he can learn to compete for fish before moving to a pre-release pool!
Core is in a pre-release pool and getting bigger each day!
Glad to hear Core is improving and receiving care! – Kai, Emily, Jeremy
