Animal Spotlight: Fur Seal Pups Avila and Kivli
Avila and Kivli 
In April, the two female Northern fur seal pups that were deemed non-releasable traveled from California to their forever home at Mystic Aquarium.

Once hunted for their fur, Northern fur seals are now protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. In 2008, they were classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN, meaning they're "considered to be facing a high risk of extinction in the wild." That's why providing a home for Avila and Kivli is critical and allows us to share the importance of protecting our ocean planet for the well-being of all marine animals.  


You Can Help

If you use a lawn care service, request natural management instead of chemical methods. You can also have your soil tested to determine its actual needs. Be sure to examine the labels of all pesticides used and ensure that the required precautions and applications methods are followed.
