Everybody knows that animals can save people´s lives. St Bernard dogs can find people who are lost in the snow, for example. But did you know that seals could stop people from drowning?

Last week a lady fell into the sea. She could not get back to the beach. She was drowning. Suddenly six seals swam towards her. They made a circle round her and held her close to some rocks. When the lifeboat people arrived they could not believe their eyes. The lady was rescued and the seals swam away.
