Facebook Live: Watch an Elephant Seal Pup Feeding!

May 18, 2017

With more than 140 animals onsite, it’s peak pupping season and elephant seal cackles fill the air. That means our pups are hungry for another meal! Ever wonder what it’s like to go through more than 1,000 pounds of fish a day feeding a bunch of hungry pups?

Well today we recorded just that with a Facebook Live video of a pen full of hungry elephant seal pups who needed some fish to get them ready to return to the wild.

Watch now as Veterinary Technicians Lauren Campbell and Sarah Pattison take you behind the scenes at the Center and then hear them answer questions about our life-saving work.
