'Sex-obsessed' seal sent to girls-only park

A "randy" seal has been removed from her home in Cornwall to stop "further illicit breeding".

Common seal Sija, originally from Belgium, has been transferred to Weymouth Sea Life Adventure Park where there are no male seals.

The decision was made after Sija gave birth to a second pup despite being given the contraceptive pill.

Why isn't she in the wild instead of captivity? Perhaps that would be the best solution. That way she could be as randy as she wants and the breeding would be beneficial for the species.
