A small female Harbor Seal pup was found caught in a net near Cordova. The pup was flown from Cordova to Anchorage by Alaska Airlines Cargo, many thanks to Alaska Airlines! Rehab staff did an initial examination and administered oral fluids to re-hydrate the seal. She was examined by vet staff that evening, and was prescribed eye drops to combat some slight irritation in the eyes.

The little pup started eating herring today! Staff have been slowly introducing fish during her swims, and earlier today she started chewing on pieces. This past feed she was sucessfully eating whole fish! This is a huge step toward release, and will help her gain weight efficiently. 

Happy Rehab Race Day!! Today runners in Seward and around the country helped raise money to help the ASLC care for and release animals just like Tigris, so thank you!

It was an absolutely beautiful day today in Cordova, and though Tigris was a bit slow to come out of her kennel, once she entered the water she was gone in a flash! Good luck in the wild Tigris!!
