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 !
