German man Erik Kohler spotted a cub seal waddling up a drainage ditch some two kilometers from the nearest beach in Lower Saxony Dornum, Germany. The seal took refuge in a drainage pipe, which was too small for rescue workers to enter. The pipe was flushed with water to force the seal out. The seal will now be kept under observation for three to four weeks. SOURCE: Bilde
