Pieterburen
The seal centre that rehabilitates animals pulled from the Wadden Sea and sends them back out.
The story
The doors could shut just as the pups arrive.
Seal Centre Pieterburen may face bankruptcy, threatening seal rescues just before pup season begins.
Pieterburen sits on the Dutch Wadden coast, where stranded seals get a second swim. Rescuers haul them in, nurse them back, and send them home. Bankruptcy would put that whole rhythm at risk.
The timing is the cruel part. Pup season is about to begin, the stretch when the centre is needed most. A locked gate then is not a quiet budget story. It is pups with nowhere to recover.

With a heavy heart we must announce that Seal Centre Pieterburen Foundation will likely have to file for bankruptcy within 2 weeks. This threatens to bring an end to our rescue of seals in need, just as the new pup season is about to begin.

Bankruptcy
If the centre goes under, rescues, rehab, and releases on that coast are the work that stops.
Pup season
It begins just as the lights might go out. The calendar will not slide to a kinder month.
