Seal Is Healed, Looking For Playmate

Published: September 4, 2003

Lincoln’s Folsom Children’s Zoo reports a sick seal named Pearl has returned to health, and is looking for a playmate. Pearl swallowed some debris that was thrown into her pool last month and it made her sick for several weeks.

Now that Pearl is well and performing her two daily shows each day at the zoo, officials are hoping to buy her a playmate. The zoo reports that Oblio, the older harbor seal that currently keeps Pearl company, is slowing down due to age.

The search for a companion started this spring and Folsom’s director has identified a seal at Orlando’s Sea World. The zoo needs to raise $25,000 to cover the cost of bringing the seal to Nebraska and improve the seal habitat at Folsom.
