A seal which was left stranded on an embankment near Victoria Dock in Hull last night has been rescued by Humberside Fire and Rescue.   

This one is from the nearby Donna Nook nature reserve - not the one that was rescued, but who can resist a cute seal picture?

Fire crews were called to the Corinthian Way area of the city where they used a salvage sheet to release the animal.

It's now being cared for by the RSPCA.
