Occurred on December 5, 2017 / Hall’s Harbour, Nova Scotia Info from Licensor: "I walk to work every day. One morning I heard a really unusual cry but didn’t see anything. When I went out again at lunchtime to go home for lunch, I heard the same cry so I walked on the beach and saw the baby seal on the shoreline with the mother seal just off the shore. I set my phone down and went out in the water with the seal to try and get the baby to go out to its mother. I thought the little seal was dying. There was a lot of blood, and I thought it was hurt badly. She wouldn’t go out into the water and kept coming right back on the beach. I went into work in hysterics, and my boss suggested I give her some warm cream. I warmed up some cream, took it out, and gave it to her. She was still crying like crazy, and the mother was getting closer, so I backed off the beach. The mother took her out and nursed her. That afternoon when I was coming home from work, she was back on the beach again. I called marine rescue, and they said it was perfectly normal and that the mother would be leaving her on the beach going to feed her self and then coming back and looking after her baby. The next afternoon I went to see her on the beach down a little further. She was calmer and her umbilical cord was starting to dry up. She rolled right over on her back so I knew she was a new born. The gentleman I spoke to at marine rescue asked me to keep an eye on her from a distance."
