Ice cure for seal's cold phobia
Updated on 27 August 2008
An Arctic seal with an apparent dislike of the cold is gradually conquering his strange phobia with the aid of a giant ice machine, experts have said.

He is now a permanent resident at the National Seal Sanctuary in Gweek, Cornwall, and his carers are using a giant ice machine to try to cure his fear of the cold.
