Ken Jones takes in a seal at his home in St Agnes, Cornwall. The young seal pup had been injured in a storm. Ken nursed it back to health before retuning it into the sea. Ken went on to devote his life to saving seals. He and his wife extended their St Agnes home to build holding pools for rescued seals. In 1975 the now well-known Seal Sanctuary moved to Gweek and has rescued many seals. Some seals are too injured to be released and have become permanent residents.
