Killer seals have started eating dolphins in British waters

"Experts warn that seal bites can lead to amputations, with many individuals who work with seals having lost parts of their fingers due to bites."

"Last year, Scottish scientists documented two beached porpoises that suffered agonizing deaths from infections caused by seal bites, highlighting the dangers posed by these animals."

"Dr. Izzy Langley noted that there is growing evidence that grey seals prey on a wider range of marine mammals than previously thought, indicating a shift in their behavior."

"The first suspected case of a grey seal killing a dolphin was recorded in Wales last month, raising further concerns about the safety of marine life."

Grey seals have begun attacking dolphins and porpoises in British waters, with incidents reported across the UK. A recent attack was captured on camera, showing a seal gripping a dolphin in the Irish Sea. Experts have noted injuries consistent with seal bites, raising alarms about swimmer safety. Seal bites can lead to severe infections and amputations. There are approximately 120,000 grey seals along the British coastline, and evidence suggests they prey on a broader range of marine mammals than previously recognized.
