Curious Baby Elephant Seal

A baby elephant seal curious, brave, and too comfortable with and among people it turns out. Petermann island, Antarctica. Below is a longer description in response to viewers' comments.
Antarctica is remote wilderness (yes, even the Peninsula that gets the lion's share of small but increasing tourist numbers). There is no baiting, feeding, tracking or approaching the animals to facilitate interaction with tourists. All close interaction happens by chance and is initiated by the animal itself. The number of people landing at each site is closely monitored (no more than 100 allowed at once) and they leave no footprint (no flags, food, or any waste).
Petermann island is visited mainly for the scenery and large bird colonies (two penguin kinds, blue-eyed shags etc.). Not seals. Seals in large numbers are more easily observed on the beaches in the sub-antarctic islands. That is why I was thrilled by this spontaneous encounter with the baby seal on a not-so-large piece of rock. I did not film the end of this encounter but was told both seal and its observers were sad to part ways and head each to their more permanent abode: seal back in the water and people back onto the mother ship.
Canon HF100 with a wide-angle Raynox 6600 lens attached was used to film the seal.

[@originalname1630]

That’s where you’re wrong seals are their own animals and dogs are their own animals. Both are extremely cute and it’s wrong to compare them.

a male elephant seal will kill a man.

[@Lilaloume]

When is was a child, my father and I used to go swimming on the edge of a little beach. Usually, we were alone with 2 o 3 fishermans. And one year, a seal got used to rest on this same beach. So , many times, when we were swimming, the seal came to see us in the water, and swam with us. Playing around, touching us with his nose, and even tryed to "kiss" my father! In fact he was apparently really intrested by my father's beard :D Look a seal in the eyes when diving, and playing with him in total nature, is one of the best memories of my childhood!

This is how you should interact with animals, not on the other side of a cage.

[@fernandovalles9983]

First off i can tell your dumb secondly this was a baby do you know how mich danger they were in? if the mom came around guaranteed one of those people would been killed this is just stupid people that dont understand space in the wild

[@mightybison15]

+Fernando Valles you're*

[@sarakat9809]

Fernando Valles You're a fucking idiot. They are NOT aggressive animals at all. At this point, the mother abandons the baby so it can learn to live on its own. They aren't territorial creatures. Actually fuck off.

[@sarakat9809]

mightybison15 I agree with you.

[@huorderedthisbigmactaollbe9029]

its not called a cage,its called a glass dome filled with water,food and space.and if I wanted to see a seal face to face not in a cage nobody is going to waste time going to the south pole to see one animal.

[@hlcastro23]

Science: Humans find youthful features “cute” - big eyes, small noses, rounded features - because it triggers our caretaking instinct for babies. Me: I will call him George and I will hug him and pet him and pat him and keep him for my very own!

This seal weighs so much. And still the Orkas throw them around like a bag of chips. Makes you feel like a Ant in their presence
