Adopt a Seal Colony and Save Lives.
Lochalsh Seals: Small population producing a few pups each year of which more than 50% do not survive the first winter. This Colony is right near a Salmon Farm and under constant threat.

We have selected 2 seals from the colony that we wish to adopt..
These seals have had quite different lifes and for various reasons are easily identifiable... We will monitor these seals and track their daily well being. These seals have existed quite happily in the Loch for the many years and so far have avoided being shot by the local salmon farm...... We will notify Marine Harvest that we are monitoring these seals on your behalf, hopefully this will be enough to protect them from a needless premature death at the hands of the local seal shooting enthusiasts...
In 2004 the fishfarm manager was shooting seals on Sundays, his day off!!! not even in company time?
PICTURES OF THE SEALS COMING SOON>>>
Lismore seals: A larger scattered population close to many salmon farms. Many haul out sites have now been completely wiped out.
