As adorable images of Kent’s newest seal pups are posted to social media, Kent Wildlife Trust has issued a warning that people risk inadvertently killing the youngsters if they get too close.
Rob Smith joins Kent Wildlife Trust's Nina Jones, Steve Weeks, and Emma Waller, as well as Save Minster Marshes' Nik Mitchell, to talk about National Grid's Sea Link plans - a cable, converter, and sub stations that could have devastating impacts on these internationally important sites for wildlife.
Warning that seal pups may die if disturbance continues across the coastline
Last week (Wednesday 24 May) DEFRA released the 1st ever Marine and Coastal Wildlife Code. This code will help to protect animals and habitats by offering friendly advice and guidance so that people can enjoy the coast responsibly.
