Seal Pup Season Begins in the Channel Islands - GSPCA Shares Advice for Islanders

As autumn arrives in the Channel Islands, the GSPCA is once again reminding islanders to give seal pups space and help ensure they get the best possible start in life.

Whilst Common Seal pup Delilah continues to do well in GSPCA care, the charity is now preparing for the start of the Grey Seal pup season, when young seals can often be spotted resting on beaches and around our coastline.

Beaches Reopen to Dogs from Today, But Please Be Mindful of Wildlife

The GSPCA is reminding dog owners that from today dogs are once again permitted on Guernsey's beaches following the end of the seasonal summer restrictions.

While many owners and their four-legged friends will be looking forward to enjoying the freedom of the island's coastline, the GSPCA is urging everyone to remain mindful of wildlife, particularly seals, seabirds and other animals that may be encountered around our shores.
