Scarborough Sealife

At Scarborough SEALIFE , they have lots of local activities you can support or get involved with!

SEA LIFE Conservation work hard to protect every part of our oceans and sea life that lives within it, whether the threat is man made, due to population changes in the wild, or an effect of global warming, they take action.

Our Conservation Successes

  • Breeding
  • Seal Rescues
  • Re-homing
  • Campaigns

Seahorse Breeding

SEA LIFE has been a pioneer in the field of seahorse breeding, successfully breeding and rearing nine different species to date to help this very sensitive and endangered sea creature from facing extinction.

Their programme has meant that they do not need to rely on external suppliers to find seahorses for their exhibitions. That means that none will ever be taken from the wild on our behalf. It also means that they may be able to use their own stock to resupply wild stock if they become extinct in the wild.

They are members of an international Taxon Advisory Group, which oversees important seahorse protection and conservation endeavours around the world.

Seal Rescues

SEA LIFE and its sister brand the Seal Sanctuaries annually rescues, cares for and returns to the wild more than 100 orphaned, injured and sick seal pups each year.

Marine Animal Rescue

They also rescue other creatures that need our help, including rare sturgeon, dolphins, Minke Whales and Sea Turtles. In 2009 a rare Kemps Ridley Turtle found close to death on a beach in southern England was returned to the wild off North Carolina.

Re-homing

SEA LIFE provides permanent homes for damaged and disabled creatures rescued and in need of homing that would otherwise have been killed or put to sleep.

By show casing all of these beautiful creatures that have found their way to live with us, they can engage with visitors to help you to understand how small daily routines and changes can count towards the survival of many of our creatures at no cost or little effort!

Occasionally they rescue and care for other, more unusual creatures. They gave homes to two severely disabled Loggerhead Sea Turtles. Antiopi, who was brain damaged by an ugly gaffe-wound and Lefteris, who had lost two flippers would have both died if collaboration between them and the Sea Turtle Protection Society of Greece (Archelon) hadn’t brought them in.
