“global warming. the animals are confused.”
Actually, Harbor seals were very common in our area as earlier as 50 years ago. They are still ocassionally seen in the area and I even remeber seeing several in LI Sound when I was a kid, only 10-15 years ago.
Also – Since these are cold water animals, wouldnt that be the opposite of global warming for them to be this far south?
Seal. it’s what’s for dinner.
OK, we’ve silenced it!
click the spaeaker icon on the lower right hand side of the video and the audio portion mercifully stops!
Hey Brownie!!! Next time let me “CLICK” on the damnned video to view instead of auto starting. Now I wish the seal was dead…..
Turn the sound down.
Autoplay. Making. Me. Crazy. Must. Stop. Please.
5:16 it’s true. While the layout may leave something to be desired, apparently it’s in a good herring school zone.
Kill the autoplay please
