    They may look a little like robot seals, but these animals are actually part of a group of 7 who have been released back into the wild after being rehabilitated at Vancouver Aquarium. The young seals, who were all originally rescued after being separated from their mothers, were released into the waters of Howe Sound in British Columbia, Canada, with five out the seven sporting fetching satellite linked transmitters on their heads. According to veterinarian Dr. Martin Haulena these transmitters will help the aquarium improve their rehabilitation and release efforts by revealing what the seals do and where they go once they are set free.
