In Brittany, a young seal was far from the sea. Thanks to a runner and the firefighters, she found her way home
He is about to end up run over, his mother saves himA few days ago, as usual, a young Brazilian student, Natalia Firmino Amarante, ran on the trail along the wild coast of Quiberon in Brittany (France). Suddenly, however, she was faced with a surprise: a young seal was standing on the coastal path, far from the sea.
The woman filmed this unusual encounter in a video posted on Twitter but also immediately activated the rescue to ensure that the animal found its way home. In fact, she was really too far from the water (about 100 meters) and it was therefore highly unlikely that she would be able to go back on her own.
She was also visibly tired.

It is unclear why the seal was on the trail, but it was probably due to bad weather. The gusts of wind and the strong storm that had occurred the previous night dragged the animal away from its natural element.
Once we arrived at the scene, the firefighters first made sure that the seal was not injured and luckily it was, the animal was just very tired.
Thanks to their help, the seal managed to reach the sea again.
