Description

Lisa Morgan is Head of Islands and Marine at the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales. In 2013, whilst Warden on Ramsey Island, Lisa spotted an Atlantic grey seal cow with a distinctive netting constriction scar.

Following some investigation, it transpired that the cow in question was in-fact 'Bagshot', a pup rescued on Perranporth Beach in Cornwall, by the National Seal Sanctuary in February 2010.

For full details of the story, please see:
