The first gray sea dogs of the season have been spotted on the Basque coast

Experts recommend not to publish the observation area, not to approach these animals less than 10 meters because they "may get stressed," and not to give them food.

The first grey sea dogs of the season are reaching the beaches and ports of the Basque Country, and this Tuesday they were seen in Gipuzkoa and Bizkaia.

According to reports from Verballenas.com, one was spotted this Tuesday in Gipuzkoa and one in Bizkaia. Given the presence of this species, the company has recommended not to publish the observation area, not to approach these animals less than 10 meters away, because "they can be stressed" and not fed.

They have also demanded that seafarers should not be surrounded and let escape into the sea, that dogs should be kept away, especially if they bark, and that they should not be wet if they are resting outside the water.

They have also asked to call 112 in case the animal has any problems so that the Landing Network can be activated and a veterinarian can check whether it is necessary to take the catch to a Recovery Centre or whether it is better to leave it alone, "as they have just done with what is in Gipuzkoa".

The Constitutional Court shall rule on the linguistic profiles of public employment in the Basque Country

The High Court of Justice of the Basque Country has asked the Constitutional Court whether or not it is constitutional for all Basque public posts to have a linguistic profile in place. One of the three judges who were to decide has issued an individual opinion because, in his view, the law in question "does not cause any imbalance". The Basque Government sees no "legal reason" for asking the question.
