The Scottish SPCA are currently caring for an adorable seal pup in Fishcross.
Named Bug, the young harbour seal pup was brought to the organisation by the British Divers Marine Life Rescue.
She has since gained over 300g of weight and has been responding well.
A spokesperson for the Scottish SPCA issued a reminder to stay away from seals and their pups ahead of birthing season this summer.

They said: “Harbour seals typically give birth to a single pup in June or July each year on the shore.
“Unlike grey seals, harbour seal pups can swim and dive within a couple of days when they’re born healthy.
“As we’re entering birthing season, please make sure to keep children and dogs away from seals and their pups on the beach.”
