Grey Seal With Two Pups

Grey Seals are one out of two seal subspecies, which are native to the UK. This seal subspecies is born in a white non-waterproof fur coat, and will moult into the first adult fur coat after mum leaves them (when they will be 17-23 days of age).
Twins are rare and neither of the pups were born to the seal, who feeds them. This was a rare occasion after a severe storm surge when this female allowed several pups, who lost their mum, to feed of her (she might have lost her own pup during the storm surge).
