The pup, named GI Joe (yes, really), had been injured by the plastic waste and rescue staff released the footage in a bid to get people to dispose of their waste correctly.
The footage, released by The Cornish Seal Sanctuary, shows the pup being hit by waves of plastic waste
The clip was shot by The Cornish Seal Sanctuary and shows the pup struggling to swim out of a rock pool as litter bobs in the water all around it. Pictures of a grey seal pup with netting wrapped around its neck were also released, with staff describing how they had to treat him for a large wound caused by the plastic pollution.
