Some idiots came down to our harbour and started trying to hand-feed the resting local seals by swimming up to them, shouting and whistling, and hitting the water, while their friends recorded from the shore.
I just wanna make something really clear;
Do NOT come somewhere on holiday and then start disturbing and trying to hand-feed the WILD ANIMALS!
Our local seals some of the rarest in the world, they’re incredibly shy and don’t need to be harassed! You could get yourself bitten or smacked by a protective mother or bull seal. And even in the best case scenario, they take a fish from your hand and you get your cute Instagram shot, encouraging seals to approach humans for food is a VERY STUPID IDEA. Do you know what happens to seals who approach fishing boats? They bite the tails off fish caught in nets, so fishermen will shoot the seals.
Leave wild animals alone, admire them from a distance. It’s not hard.
