La Jolla Cove’s tricky waters were no match for two SeaWorld San Diego rescue team members, who with the help of local lifeguards came to the aid of a malnourished and dehydrated northern elephant seal pup on July 31. The 133-pound animal was transported to SeaWorld’s Animal Rescue Center, where it was rehydrated and tube-fed; SeaWorld’s animal care specialists say the pup should be fit enough to return to the ocean in six to eight weeks. SeaWorld has rescued more than 185 ill, injured and stranded marine mammals this year.
