Manx Wildlife Trust rescue animal from Kirk Michael 

Manx Wildlife Trust was called out yesterday to help a seal which had been injured by abandoned fishing gear.

The young seal was taken from Kirk Michael beach to the vets and is now at the seal rehab centre. 

The charity is urging people to be responsible when using fishing equipment and to make sure it's safely disposed of.
