Staff at an Essex animal hospital are dealing with an increasing number of abandoned seal pups.

Rocky is released at Walton-on-the-Naze after being flown from Jersey earlier this year.

A seal pup flown by private jet to a wildlife hospital is now eating fish whole as he piles on the weight.

A seal is flown to the mainland for hospital treatment where he is "starting to be a bit naughty".

An animal wildlife hospital says it freed the animal "with a little wiggling and patience".

The story has a "very happy ending", the fire service says.

Police are appealing for the public's help to trace the missing craft.

National Highways has launched a new initiative to try to stop motorists from discarding rubbish.
