This 2008 Dutch video is about a black harbour seal pup in the seal sanctuary in Pieterburen then.
Translated from RTV Noord in the Netherlands:
Friday, January 23, 2015
The seal sanctuary in Pieterburen on Friday admitted a very special seal pup.
The seal has melanism, which means that it has a completely black fur. The animal was rescued by fishermen.
Rare
It is very rare that a seal has melanism. Since the rehabilitation center in Pieterburen started only eight animals with melanism were brought in.
