ROSEBURG
Presence. Of Tiny
Seal In Umpqua
Offers Mystery
How a seal got to central Doug
las County 100 miles from the
ocean remained a mystery today,
but William Pitney, fish biologist
for the State Game Commission,
advanced the belief It was brought
here by some individual and re
leased. Pitney said It was hardly con
ceivable a seal a tiny one at
thatcould battle Its way this
far up the Umpqua River, nor that
It would, even if it could.
The seal was found by a couple
of surprised boys, members of a
party from the Green Community
Church swimming in the river
about three miles south of Rose
burg. The boys,Wayne Medford
and Carl Jacobs, sighted the sea
animal as it came ashore. They
notified State Police, who in turn
notified the Game Commission.
The' sea. a non-fur bearing
specie, commonly called harbor
, seals, weighed only about 18
1 pounds, an appeared to be not
more than one-fourth grown, said
Pitney. It is probable a seal of
that age would still be with its
mother, he said.
it most certainly, he surmised,
would not be fighting its way up
the awlft Umpqua River that far
from home.
This specie, he said, needs salt
water in which to survive. The
little animal was pretty sick and
had to be put away, he added.
"I'm pretty much burned up ov
er the affair," he said. "It is
against the law to capture a seal,
and few folks have the facilities
for keeping them."
' The creature was doomed to die.
whether left in the river or kept
in captivity, he said.
Bull seals sometimes go on a
marauding trip, and they have
been found in the Willamette riv
er as far inland as Orejon City,
according to Pitney, but the Col
umbia and upper Willamette, while
not salt water, are affected by tne
tides.
A small seal probably would not
have the physical endurance to
duplicate even that feat, he said.
