Seal Release at Station Shinnecock

 Westhampton-Hampton Bays  See map

A female gray seal pup, now known as Tabasco, will be released at Coast Guard Station Shinnecock at noon as part of the U.S. Coast Guard/ U.S. Coast Guard Auxillary Open House happening from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Tabasco was rescued from Atlantic Beach, NY back in April with cuts and scrapes and patches of fur missing.  Now eating twelve pounds of fish per day, it is time for her to return home.

Donations such as papertowels, bleach, and laundry detergent for the Riverhead Foundation are always appreciated and can be brought to the release.

P. Killian, Thanks for asking. We just reached out to State police. They are doing seatbelt checks.
