"Stranded in Brick Township on April 12, this female grey seal was lethargic, breathing heavily and had discharge around her eyes. Our vet Dr. Paluch discovered she was missing teeth and - in place of the missing teeth - a piece of dead bone imbedded in her lower jaw. Removing the piece of bone allowed the infected gums to heal and prevented further tooth loss."
.
"As one of the most active seals at the center, she enjoyed hauling out and diving back into her pool, all the while producing a low steady hum that could be heard throughout the day."
.
"With both her mouth and respiratory infection healed, she was released in Rhode Island on June 24, 2009. "Brick" is wearing a satellite tag and can be tracked online at www.mmsc.org."
