A couple who spotted a dead seal on a north Norfolk beach are warning others not to go near it.

Sally Dunham, from Bacton, said: 'This seal has not got a head, as someone must have cut it off.

'I'm trying to get it moved. It's smelling really badly and I think people should be warned not to go near it.'
