Humanity has not yet learned how to properly deal with nature. People dump tons of garbage into the ocean, harming not only themselves but also innocent animals.

A seal was found on a British beach with a child's plastic flying saucer hanging from its neck. She left deep cuts on the animal’s body and prevented him from feeding. The suffering seal was discovered in September 2017 on Horsey Beach near the North Sea. At first, people were surprised by the unusual collar on a wild animal. But they soon realized what harm this plate had brought him.

Scientists of the British Kingdom suggest that the object was on the neck for about six months. It left serious injuries and caused great discomfort. The animal welfare volunteer group responded very quickly. They took the seal to a veterinary clinic, where the ring was immediately removed. Then they began to treat the poor fellow with antibiotics, steroids and painkillers, because the wounds caused enormous pain. After 5 months, doctors managed to restore the sea beauty’s health. She has gained a lot of weight and feels great.
