EDITORS COMMENTS
. This adorable young Antarctic fur seal seems to have found itself in quite the predicament. With a nylon rope stuck around its neck, it's clear that this little cutie has gotten caught up in some trouble. But fear not, help is on the way! In this print of South Georgia Island's Godthul, we witness an unfortunate accident turned rescue mission. The brave photographer Cindy Miller Hopkins captures every detail of this entangled fur seal as it stands amidst the lush green tussac grass. While it may be sad to see such pollution and debris affecting our wildlife, let us focus on the positive side - the dedication and efforts made by individuals like Cindy who work tirelessly to protect these beautiful creatures. As we marvel at this lone juvenile mammal entrapped by human waste, let us remember that we all play a role in preserving our environment for future generations. So next time you come across trash or rubbish, do your part and dispose of it properly. Together, we can ensure that scenes like these become rare occurrences rather than everyday sights. Let's keep our wild spaces clean and free from harm so that animals like this young fur seal can thrive happily in their natural habitat once again.
