Two extremely cute seal pups from Kaliningrad Zoo were reunited with wild nature on Wednesday after zookeepers brought the little animals in wooden shipping boxes to the water's edge on the southern coast of the Baltic Sea. The adorable cubs seemed confused at first as they began crawling around the boxes, but eventually dived into the water and appeared to be swimming strongly.
Meet Kroshik, a tiny seal cub who was about to be released back into the open waters of Russia's massive Lake Ladoga. Kroshik was found by fishermen near the village of Sviritsa in Russia's Leningrad Region on March 25th and was later placed under the care of vets at the Marine Mammal Rehabilitation Center. Caretakers were quite surprised about Kroshik's size, he was one of the smallest of his kind ever to have been admitted to the center. An animal welfare organisation called the Friends of Baltic Seals Foundation then tried to release Kroshik, along with another seal cub named Pasha, back into the wild, but were in for a surprise when Kroshik, whose name literally translates to tiny crumb from Russian, touched the water and decided that he would rather stay with his human buddies. It's unclear Kroshik was just too attached to his carers or whether the water was just a bit too chilly that day.
