Seal pups released at Hastings after weeks of life-saving care

Two injured seal pups have been released back into the wild after eight weeks of life-saving care at an RSPCA wildlife centre.

Skittles and Hopscotch, both around five months old, were found underweight and suffering from injuries and parasites on the Sussex coastline.

The RSPCA said their condition was so serious they would not have survived without help.

Following weeks of round-the-clock care, including being fed fish soup then later whole mackerel and herring, the pups were released at Hastings seafront.
