2025 年 9 月 30 日,一只年轻的澳大利亚海狗幼崽在维多利亚州波特兰 RSL 的一个垃圾桶中被发现还活着,被转移到维多利亚动物园的海洋响应小组,但后来以福利为由被安乐死。
A young Australian Fur Seal pup found alive in a rubbish bin at the Portland RSL in Victoria on September 30, 2025, was transferred to Zoos Victoria’s Marine Response Unit but later euthanized on welfare grounds.

Authorities believe the pup was taken under suspicious circumstances, violating the Wildlife Act 1975, which prohibits handling, feeding, or disturbing seals.
养护监管机构敦促公众通过维多利亚犯罪制止者组织匿名报告任何信息,强调应在安全距离外观察海豹,以保护动物和人。
The Conservation Regulator is urging the public to report any information anonymously through Crime Stoppers Victoria, emphasizing that seals should be observed from a safe distance to protect both animals and people.
