The value of #iron for a #seal: On the remote #SableIsland, #WHOI researchers are determining if an iron boost gives #GraySeal pups a head start whoi.edu/oceanus/feature/the-v

"Most #SealPups don’t make it through their first year, and the researchers want to figure out whether higher iron intake makes a difference in the pups’ survival... Everyone has been focused on the abundance of prey and how many calories #seals are able to take in, but maybe just as important is getting the iron that they need"

Ein kleiner Sportflughafen in den Dünen. Eine junge Kegelrobbe hatte sich, um sich vor der stürmischen See in Sicherheit zu bringen, vom Strand bis zur Tankstelle gerobbt. Vielleicht hat sie auch nur die beiden Tanks mit Mama und Papa verwechselt. Wer weiß ^^

A small sports airport in the dunes. A young gray seal had scrambled from the beach to the gas station to get to safety from the stormy sea. Maybe it just mistook the two tanks for mom and dad. Who knows ^^
