Sealed and delivered
On Boxing Day, the owner of a Toyota in the Launceston (Tasmania) suburb of Newstead woke up to find a huge fur seal of 200 kg lodged on the bonnet. Parks and Wildlife staff threw a net over the creature, and tranquillized it by means of a veterinary product. The seal slipped quickly into DreamLand. Traces of the seal’s visit remained visible on the automobile. The creature was finally placed on a trailer. The seal was then driven to a beach and released. All's well that ends well. Bravo to the seal-handlers !
