Seal Breaks Into Cape Cod Fish Hatchery & Feasts
SANDWICH (AP) ― Click to enlarge WBZ 1 of 1 Close numSlides of totalImages Life from here on out is bound to be a bit disappointing for a young harbor seal that somehow broke into a Cape Cod fish hatchery and enjoyed an all-you-can-eat buffet. The female seal briefly had the run of the Sandwich Hatchery on Tuesday, downing untold numbers of trout before it was caught and released on a Dennis beach. The Cape Cod Times reported the seal, which was just under three feet long, was found at about 7 a.m. by Division of Fisheries and Wildlife employees. Experts said although seals spend most of their time in salt water, they can live for short periods in fresh water. Katie Touhey, a spokeswoman for the Cape Cod Stranding Network, which released the seal on the beach, said the animal looked healthy and "pretty full." WBZ-TV
