Styrelse med opfordring: Lad sælungerne være - også hvis de hyler

The Danish Nature Agency is urging the public to leave seal pups undisturbed, even if they appear to be alone and vocalizing. It is common for mother seals to leave their pups for extended periods while they hunt for food. The pups are often left on beaches or dunes, and their cries are a natural part of their development and survival strategy. Approaching or interfering with the pups can cause distress and may lead the mother to abandon them permanently.

Respecting the natural behavior of seals is crucial for their survival and the health of marine ecosystems.
