Seal pup unsure about entering water

This recently-weaned seal pup was spotted viewing a water hole with some trepidation by staff from a research team studying population ecology of Weddell seals in the Antarctic.

Talkative little fellow. I think I could get to understand seal. Surely he's saying something to the effect of, "You don't really expect me to go in there, do you? It's cold! Oh, yea. Cold!Oh, no!Let me out of here!"

This is most probably the original video. It's 3 years older.

Thanks for that Brixter!

I've changed the video.

Hey, are all your family safe and well?

Brixter said...

Yes, we hail from Manila and Haiyan went through the middle part of the Philippines and Manila is at the northern part. Thanks :)

I'm glad to hear that!

It's heartbreaking seeing what has happened to so many people.
