Noting that interactions with humans could endanger a seal pup's growth and even life, the agency advised humans to stay at least 150 feet away from them at all times.

Look for videos of seal interactions with cruisers in the Galapagos. Those bastards will outright take over your boat!

How about just stop taking selfies altogether? I think that’s the best advice.

The gray seals on Cape Cod are ruining the fishing for the local fishermen. We took my GD to the Cape Cod National Seashore early last spring to see them; and the local fishermen HATE them.

Next from the Cape, will be alerts about the huge influx/sightings/attacks of great white sharks.
Coming to the evening news, near you.
In this Wednesday, May 25, 2016 photo, a replica of the great white shark head used in the movie "Jaws" is displayed at the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy's Chatham Shark Center in Chatham, Mass Read more at: http://phys.org/news/2016-05-shark-high-low-tech.html#jCp

I’m used to cuda and hammerheads taking half of my hard fought wahoo before I can get it in the boat. If I could shoot them, I would.

Occasionally Seals fall from the sky; selfies with them are trickier.
