Seals And Humans
Seals are known for attacking humans that come a bit too close to them. However, this is generally during breeding periods. Additionally, these divers were lucky these pups were unaccompanied as parents would attack to protect their young.
Hunting Of Seals
Hunting seals is illegal in many locations however, it is considered a sport in some places as countries use them for meat or oil. Fisherman, unfortunately, do this so that they have less competition and less to deal with in the ocean. This is truly terrible after we see just how friendly these creatures can be.
