The dangers of swimming with seals
Tourists in Cornwall are being warned against swimming with the seals popping up along the coast of St Ives.
The harbour master Steve Bassett has put up warning signs around the harbour at the tourist hotspot.
He told Martha Kearney that seal bites are "really infectious" and "a child could lose an arm".
