Weekly Incident Report | 24 – 30 August 2026

A blessedly quiet week, for which we give thanks. Only one report crossed our desk, and it came from well outside our operational area.

Elephant Seal Ashore, Cape Point

📍 Location: Cape Point (outside our operational area)   📅 Date: Week of 24 August   👤 Notified via: Mossel Bay Stranding Network; Meredith

  • We had only two reports, from two different people, about a large elephant seal ashore. Where? Cape Point, somewhat further than our operational area!
  • We posted the photo and message on the Mossel Bay Stranding Network, and Meredith very quickly responded by notifying the relevant people.
  • We are rather surprised that someone in the Cape Town area called our number, because he was advised to notify SMART by a friend. Not complaining, just glad we could get the message through.

🦭 Status: Report passed on to the relevant team in the Cape Point area.

Keep well, stay blessed. We hope for another quiet week. 🐾
