The number of seal pups spotted along the Norfolk coast between Waxham and Winterton has almost doubled in three years. So what's causing the population boom? Seal expert Peter Ansell says it's all down to the fish.
Peter Ansell, chairman of Friends of Horsey Seals, which works to protect the animals from disturbance, said:"It is a sign of a healthy colony.
"They are very popular with visitors, which is funny because they don't really do anything, they come ashore and flop down and every few hours the pup nudges the mum for a feed."
