About half a year ago a new rescue center for seals opened in Stellendam. In the Netherlands there is already the famous seal-rescue center at Pieterburen and also on the island of Texel ( at Ecomare ) seals are rescued but both these centers are in the north part of the Netherlands near the Wadden sea. Because there is also a southern seal population in the Zeeuwse delta, the new center at Stellendam will focus on recueing animals from this population.
The center has now been named "A Seal Zeehondenopvang - Stellendam" and the first photos have been up-loaded in the Gallery .
