## Resource

Two tiny harbor seal pups, barely days old and in critical condition, made a perilous 300-mile journey to the Alaska SeaLife Center after being found injured and dehydrated near Cordova and Hinchinbrook Island. A volunteer pilot flew them in, showcasing the remote Alaskan communities’ reliance on air rescue. At the center, vets discovered deep wounds and severe dehydration — one pup even had an eye ulcer. As pupping season peaks, experts urge the public to keep their distance and report any stranded animals to the Stranded Marine Animal Hotline — because every second counts for these fragile lives.
