Seal Snuggling Very cute,→[More:] I would love to be able to hang out on a beach with seals and penguins.
It starts out cute, but it quickly moves into awkward territory when she puts her face right up into its muzzle and lets it get right up on top of her. That thing must weigh over 500 lbs. Even if its intentions are completely benign, that's just a horrible accident waiting to happen.
I did love the penguins traipsing up and down in the background, however. (But don't seals eat penguins? They seemed pretty nonchalant about being in such close proximity to a natural predator.)
(By the way, it looks like the poster took down the video.)
