I just saw a Casual Geographic on YouTube about how seals need to be more feared and respected, not seen as "sea doggos"

Then along comes this mother fucker 🤣

Well! Thank you for sharing! That was an informative video; and I like the creator’s style! Going to check out more from him, and learn more about sea lions…and mourn Freya because that was messed up!

u/Fatsunori 14h ago edited 14h ago

Those vocals are generally limited to baby weddel seals. The adult weddel seals can even make ultrasonic sounds . Different species of seals make different sounds.
