:01:40. > :01:49.hours. But you did it for kiddie Ina? Yes. What will you do when she

:01:54. > :01:57.loads of the other Paralympians coming home today, so that's going

:01:58. > :02:00.to be at 9am, really shortly. Thank you so much.

:02:01. > :02:03.It's that time of year where grey seal pups are being born on beaches

:02:04. > :02:05.around the UK as pupping season gets going.

:02:06. > :02:08.But experts in Cornwall in the south-west of England

:02:09. > :02:10.are worried because some of these little guys are being forced

:02:11. > :02:17.Ayshah's been looking into this for us.

:02:18. > :02:20.The golden beaches and rocky coves of the UK coast are home to 38%

:02:21. > :02:24.of the world's population of grey seals.

:02:25. > :02:30.If you're lucky, you might spot them out at sea

:02:31. > :02:32.or hauled out on beaches, having a nap.

:02:33. > :02:39.But Snoozy has had a tough time after he was pushed back

:02:40. > :02:41.into the sea by passers by who thought that was

:02:42. > :02:57.Young seals are very small when they come out of their mothers and they

:02:58. > :03:00.don't have much muscle, so they are poor swimmers, so you should not put

:03:01. > :03:04.them back in the water. They are very rare, there are about the same

:03:05. > :03:09.number of them as there are African elephants in the world, so it is

:03:10. > :03:13.important we look after them here and make sure as many of them

:03:14. > :03:18.survive as possible. We just got a call about a rescue, so we're going

:03:19. > :03:40.to the sanctuary to find out what is going on.

:03:41. > :03:48.He was out on his own, without his mum, so they are going to make sure

:03:49. > :03:55.he's OK. We got a call about a young seal that was potentially distress.

:03:56. > :04:04.It was between some rocks, trapped, and it was underweight. What would

:04:05. > :04:09.you say to people who see a baby seal on the beach. Some people think

:04:10. > :04:13.they need to chase it akin to the water or put it back into the water

:04:14. > :04:19.by pushing it, which is the wrong thing to do. Leave it alone, keep

:04:20. > :04:25.well back, keep dogs away, then call us and we'll come and check it. The

:04:26. > :04:30.sanctuary have called the new arrival orca. He is doing well and

:04:31. > :04:35.will probably be released in a few months. What the team want to do is

:04:36. > :04:36.to avoid them coming in the first place, by reading them well alone in

:04:37. > :04:39.the wild. Newsround's back right

:04:40. > :04:42.here in about half an hour, when we'll have Paralympic champion

:04:43. > :04:44.Jonnie Peacock live in the studio. There's still time to

:04:45. > :04:47.send us a question - go online now to tell

:04:48. > :04:50.us what you wanna ask!
