Ice Machine Helps Arctic Seal Survive Mediterranean Vacation
Arctic seals tend to prefer the cold. Actually, they tend to prefer arctic cold. They are Arctic seals after all.
That being said, Sahara the seal (seen above) has decided that the cold just isn't for him. He has been rescued twice after swimming 1,000 miles, twice, in the wrong direction to enjoy the warmth of Mediterranean waters.
Sahara is now a quasi-permanent resident of the National Seal Sanctuary in Gweek, Cornwall, England. Care- givers at the Sanctuary have gone the tech route to rehabilitation, utilizing a massive ice machine to reintroduce the seal to his roots. After initially shunning the section of his enclosure equipped with the ice machine, Sahara has been increasingly interested in the frigid white stuff. He is now enjoying his time laying on the ice and looks set to be re-released into his native waters off Greenland.
He is obviously playing the researchers. We fully expect him back in the Mediterranean, fruity drink in fin, as soon as his little toosh hits the open ocean. [From: DailyMail]
