You can help us care for Mowgli and the more than 100 marine mammals we rescue, rehabilitate and release every year by symbolically adopting her today with a small donation to the rescue centre.
Patient Progress
Weaning Mowgli is still being fed a zoological milk formula, but as her teeth are beginning to erupt, her diet is being supplemented with fish. Soon, she will enter fish school where she will learn how to eat fish on her own.
