Officials rescued the healthy 36-pound seal pup before releasing it back into the wild on Tuesday afternoon.
A seal pup was discovered to be crossing a main road in Brick Township, NJ and was brought to safety.People often joke about why the chicken crossed the road, but what about a seal?
Officers managed to stop traffic and allow the seal to safely cross the road. The pup, however, did not go back home just yet, as it made its way into someone's backyard on Ocean Avenue and stayed there under the supervision of the officers. Surprisingly, this is not the first time seals have been seen wandering away from their homes. In fact, the Marine Mammal Stranding Center has received many cases of seal sightings in the last 45 years.
