Seal, Sea, Science.

We are convinced that healthy seals and a healthy sea are inextricably linked. Researchers in our sanctuary study what we can learn from this principle – for the seal, for our sea and for our own health. You can support our work with a visit or a donation. Every contribution counts. Are you in?

The best care for seals

When we started in 1971, seals were almost extinct in the Netherlands. Seals have since been removed from the red list of threatened mammals. We prefer seeing seals in freedom and in their place in the Wadden Sea. We owe this success largely to the tireless contributions of professionals, volunteers and donors. Unfortunately, there will always be seals in need of help, for example because they have become entangled in litter. If necessary, the animals are taken to our centre. Veterinarians, carers and volunteers are ready to help them there. Our dedicated team buckles down to its work every day.

Een gezonde zeehond in een gezonde zee word donateur

  • “⁠⁠Ik vind het heel belangrijk dat zieke zeehonden en zeehonden in nood geholpen blijven worden. Ik woon niet in de buurt van de kust, en kan daardoor niet persoonlijk bijdragen, maar ik kan wel jullie steunen als donateur zodat jullie dit goede werk voort kunnen zetten.”

  • "I support the Sealcentre because, as a donor, I can see what happens with my donation and I am so well involved in developments."

  • “Ik vind dieren heel belangrijk voor de mensheid. Helaas kunnen zij zelf niet opkomen voor een goed en gezond leven en helaas zorgt de mensheid daar niet altijd goed voor. Dus, goede zorg ondersteun ik graag en dat is wat jullie organisatie doet.”

  • "What I like most about the centre is that it has been supported by volunteers and donors for so many years." 

  • "The conservation of the Wadden Sea and seals is important. You cannot have one without the other: healthy habitat, healthy seals. This requires research (and that costs money) hence the support."

  • “Hoe het met de zeehonden gaat is voor mij een afspiegeling van hoe wij met de Waddenzee en de natuur in het algemeen omgaan.”
