    It looks quite wounded. Is this also a fur seal, Graeme? Posted 12 years ago

      Bay was caught in a fishing net and bought into Melbourne Zoo for treatment. Due to the injury she wasn't set free as she got close to keepers and she was under treatment for a long time. She is used in a Conservation program about not throwing rubbish into the ocean Posted 12 years ago
