The seal was found with a 'huge, deep, extensive wound' that was 'really infected', according to the RSPCA.
"It's caused a huge, deep, extensive wound that's really infected."
After its first case in 2008, which involved a nylon fishing line, Ms Charles said the centre had since seen around three to four cases per year.But in the last year, there has been a significant increase in reported incidents of seals caught in plastic litter at Ms Charles's RSPCA centre, a trend that was reflected nationwide.
A nearby sea life centre has also reported an increase in waste-related seal injuries, with one case happening just this week. "We hope that people will think about what they're doing and not take this Frisbee to the beach to play with their dog."Reported cases of seals injured by plastic debris have increased nationwide in the last few years
