MARC Program Manager Kristen Patchet told NECN reporter Marnie MacLean that 17 other seals remain at MARC; an unusually high number of them have come in with traumatic injuries like shark bites and propeller accidents."The guys that come in with these injuries are in rough shape, a lot of them are at death's door." .
