A sealion was found with a diving spear embedded in it and another is suffering with unnatural abrasions.
A penguin died after being attacked by a dog, and several others have been injured.

The incidents follow last week's sentencing of 20-year-old Harley David McKenzie for an attack on a leopard seal in Te Waewae Bay last year.
