The injured seal (named No. 296) underwent more than two months of rehab with Marine Mammals of Maine and marks the 100th seal released by the organization since establishing a rehabilitation center.
The nonprofit typically rescues 15-30 animals a year, though it’s working to increase capacity and take in larger animals.
It also operates a hotline to report injured or stranded marine mammals throughout Maine.
