In the philippines we own dogs as well but we just let them roam the streets. They come back to the house usually when its time to eat xD

[@PowerScissor]

​@@harrellt1405 It's a nightmare when dog owners do not think about anyone else at all. Your kid wants to ride their bike down the street? Well there's packs of people's pets roaming around that ruin that. They dig up and shit in everyone else's yard, scratch through screen doors. 2 of the 3 times I've been seriously bitten by dogs (requiring visit to ER, lost a finger) allowed to roam free was as their owner was saying "Don't worry about them, they're friendly" If an owner says, "oh they come back to get food" they are saying I'm selfish and don't care about anyone else in the area or their small children, and it's way easier and less work for me to just let them run around.

[@tonyg490]

In going through this problem right now. Renting a house and can't walk my dog down the street because this 100lb monster comes out aggressively barking at me and following me. Just yesterday he was in our yard and we live a few hundred feet away from where the dog lives. Had to scare it all the way back home and he was very aggressive and hesitant to leave.... barked at me the entire time he was retreateing. Dogs are not cats. They cannot be left alone to roam the streets and possibly kill somebody or their pets.

[@alnewick]

The layers of skin/fat/blubber are strong but that dog wasn’t giving it a proper hard bite. They were chasing them off as packs do, not trying to kill and/or eat them. With full force any large dog could puncher the skin 100%. I have seen the numbers before comparing jaw/bite strengths in pounds per square inch I believe and was surprised how powerful dogs were on the list.

[@afunnytheropod]

Even if the dogs were doing anything the sea lion can rip it apart

[@vincentx2850]

You would be surprised how canines can be a threat for pinnipeds on land. Seals and sea lions, though powerful, lacks mobility on land and really cannot defend themselves very well. There are cases of coyotes mauling weaned elephant seal pups in California, where seals and sea lions account for more than 20% of coyote's diet.

[@nojorooney]

While it wasn’t doing that much damage, the dogs were still doing damage to the sea lions, the sea lions were also too slow to defend themselves from the dogs so they retreated, I doubt these dogs would’ve killed one of these sea lions even if they were there all day but it was still bad enough for the sea lions to react and retreat, coastal coyotes and wolves actively make a living out of breaking into pinniped carcasses so I doubt that those bites did not hurt at all

Yeah amazing how peaceful those dogs were to the Sea Lions. Feeding animals is never an acceptable idea. The animals get aggressive when not fed then end up being shot.

[@Eastern1]

This being free is really a blessing, considering the hardworking camera crew, musicians and GOAT narrator. Edit : editors too

[@Phori859]

Same text different font 🤣

[@lindaj5492]

Could market people build a fence to keep dogs out of part of the beach?

[@garg4531]

Dogs will probably just dig under it or find an opening somewhere Plus building a fence takes time, money, and work, and it might not be worth the effort for them

[@v.dargain1678]

Then the owners should be notified or removed by animal control .

[@trinihammer]

@@v.dargain1678 those are wild feral dogs that do not have any owners.

[@Keznen]

@trinihammer Some of them have collars, meaning those ones were either allowed to run around unsupervised or were abandoned.

[@user-hk7zg7kg5l]

That intro is hilarious 😭😭

For those asking about the collars, yes, they are stray dogs (I'm from Chile). There are three possibilities: 1)Community dogs, they are street dogs but are fed and cared for by people in the neighborhood. 2)Dogs of homeless people, they live and are cared for by them. 3)Irresponsible people who let them go out for walks alone... very common (and that's how many are lost).

[@useruseruser666]

Packs of stray dogs can be just as disruptive to natural wildlife as free range cats.

[@iljc1967]

Fact!

[@blksoul26]

That one dog with the collar on is saying “EXCUSE ME??? I AM DOWN!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@elirien4264]

Sometimes, I don't like dogs.

[@brucecarter8296]

helping hand. yeah, right

[@garg4531]

Take their food, then give back the stuff they don’t want

[@neptuno7351]

You have to be clear that with any effort . And I can be sure they don’t care if the leftovers are guts or fillet.

[@ukan.536]

So beautiful. I loved all of this.

[@titanomachy2217]

That one dog with the orange collar must have had an owner at some point. I wonder what its life story is that brought it to that point. Crazy to think about a domesticated dog running away from home and ending up fighting sea lions on the beaches.

[@Keznen]

Probably just an irresponsible jerk letting the dog run around unsupervised and probably unneutered/unspayed. Dangerous for the dog and even more so for the native wildlife.

[@stellakowalski1]

6 million stray dogs in Chile? For shame, Chile! Have you ever heard of spay/neuter?😡

[@Keznen]

And to make things even worse, some of these dogs shown here have *collars* on, meaning they were either abandoned or are owned by irresponsible jerks letting them run amok unspayed/uneutered.

[@curtfont]

2 million stray dogs??? "Jesus Christ Chile" for God sake please do something about that 😤

[@Soundofwindonsand]

Thanks for this I've never seen them react to agrresive behavior before That head really does give the reason for the word Lion.

[@berlayar14-ff7pu]

The shots and compositions are amazing

[@footfault1941]

Overfishing is an overwhelming threat to all the sea lives. Bits of help would do no harm. On land, outnumbered, for sea lions to protect their long-held place may needs a hand of help. A tiny investment of effort would do!

[@puravidadew7031]

Obviously, too many stray dogs running around on the beach. They should be dealt with.

[@emedina73]

That was a pretty cool spectacle at the end!

[@magicalminty6203]

Fisherman cutting up his catch see a friendly sea lion, and throws it some of his fish. Dog sees it. Dog: "Oh HELL no! People food is our turf."

[@jeffk3746]

Bad dog!

[@eddiewtong213]

All dogs are evil.

[@pedroballadares5253]

Hey , those are vicious dogs 😮!!

[@URProductions]

If I lived there, I'd be down at the beach every day with a 6-pack of beer to watch the fights.

[@Alteori]

Water dogs vs Legged Seals

[@Skillseboy1]

Why do the dogs advance on these sea lions though? Why would they risk themselves for this cause? What do they gain by it? Do they fight for the same food?

[@aiyyoi]

Same question I ask every day watching my dog going bananas and try to climb trees to get the squirrels

[@v.dargain1678]

My guess is it's the thrill of the hunt for the territorial feral dogs and therefore chasing sea lions is entertainment .

[@richardparker7121]

YES.

[@SternenruferinPatchouli1]

maybe, dogs also eat fish sometimes

[@oldjose9110]

Dogs are territorial especially in packs

[@eriksonyw]

As much as I dislike BBC News, David Attenborough's version is always amazing ;)

[@DemoNinja79]

I hate how the dogs are harassing the Sea Lions. Leave them in peace.

[@kneegrow3906]

I hate how the sea lions are encroaching on the dogs territory. Go back into the sea and don't come back.

[@Keznen]

@kneegrow3906 The sea lions are native, wild animals; the dogs aren't. Therefore, the dogs don't have any claim to this territory.

[@mmgs1148]

​@@kneegrow3906 a beach is also sea lions environment, dogs and cats roaming freely are pests just like rats in the cities.

[@ydcjydcj1724]

Its so weird I am laughing while watching 😂

[@HPugwash]

Dog owners be like: "Oh hes so friendly"

[@Dell-ol6hb]

Wolves also do this kind of mobbing against bears to chase them away from their dens or kills, so it's pretty interesting to see dogs having the same behavior towards sea lions.

[@inesbarros1944]

Just adorable and precious!!❤❤

[@jennifermorgan1837]

This probably doesn’t seem like a problem, but what happens when it’s the breeding season for these seal and their babies can’t get away from the dogs?

[@Lagohuera4958]

There still some remote islands or rock formations within the sea, where dogs can't swim to reach them

[@PlanetEarth3141]

The dogs are jealous but can't hurt a critter that big. 😊

[@Fatih_M177]

Dogs yelling at the Sea Lions while the lions do nothing kinda reminds me of that meme where a guy is yelling (and he has a small brain) while the other guy is just standing smiling (And he has BIG BRAIN XD) Nature truly is beautifuly hilarious!

[@lukesanders768]

David Attenborough graba escenas en Chile para un documental pero pa la telebasura lo importante es quien entra al nuevo reality...

[@ahmedjunaid03]

Hes saying chill bro 😂

[@dripfoe_3307]

Ong😂

[@Levo_D_Angelo]

Fun Fact: In Chile we call them Sea Zebras, they look like a Zebra from behind

[@123Goldhunter11]

They look like the Stellar Sea Lions we have up in Puget Sound.

[@user-ic8no6bq9y]

I am 100% convinced that we know nothing about everything.
