Seal spotted in Florida? Wildlife commission investigating
FILE PHOTO: Harbor seals watch for danger at Children's Pool Beach in La Jolla, California. A seal was recently spotted as far south as Florida.
It's not unheard of for seals to migrate as far south as Florida, and it appears one has made its way to Palm Valley in St. Johns County.
A photo of a seal lounging by the Intracoastal Waterway was sent to Action News Jax by a viewer.
Florida Fish and Wildlife will try to catch the seal, and they will take it to SeaWorld Orlando if found.
