Residents are being reminded to keep an eye for seal pups this winter.
The Manx SPCA took to Facebook to remind people not to touch the pups as they could bite.
It's also advising people watch them from at least 50 meters away and to keep dogs on leashes.
Grey seal pupping season started in late August and runs through the winter months.
