Description There was a story about a baby seal lost from the beach and whilst being transported to the Dept of Conservation, fell off the back of the truck.. a very sad story for a baby who was lost... someone found it on the street up town(it was all before the morning traffic was at full steam) and took it into an office to phone the proper authorities to pick it up! Unfortunatley the poor thing was very malnourished and was unable to be saved...

I was really saddened by the story and felt compelled to draw it! It seems to be saying "Where's my mamma?!"

reminds me why i LOVE diving with them so much! (PADI DM SCUBA)
you need to do more underwater wildlife like
great white sharks etc that are so misunderstood nowdays
and give them that same human like look instead of the usual 'kill em all' shit' we normally see.
