@getlostwithliam: This incredible leopard seal is currently resting in Wellington! 🦭✨ Since this is a popular off-lead dog spot, please be extra vigilant if you are heading down. Leopard seals are massive, wild apex predators that can move surprisingly fast on land and have a very powerful bite. 🐕 Leash your dogs immediately and keep them well away. You can face prosecution and hefty fines if their pet attacks a seal. 📏 You must stay a minimum of 20 metres back at all times from the seal. 🌊 Never get between a seal and the sea. 🛑 Remember to look but don’t touch. never feed, approach, or make loud noises around them. Harassing a marine mammal is a serious offence under the Marine Mammals Protection Act 1978. Let’s give this wild visitor the space it needs to rest! If you see anyone harassing the seal, call the DOC emergency hotline at 0800 DOC HOT (0800 362 468)
That’s so irresponsible of that dog owner to let them run around near the seal. No matter how good your dogs recall is, leopard seals are FAST.

📌 IMPORTANT REMINDER: Please keep dogs ON LEASH and stay at least 20 metres away! Leopard seals are powerful predators and harassing them is a legal offence. Never block their path to the water, and call DOC (0800 362 468) if you see anyone bothering it.

I’ll be honest, this is the first time I’ve ever conceptualized how massive they are. I thought they were just super aggressive and Great Dane size.

Why would anyone see one of the most aggressive aquatic mammals and go. Let me let my dog run around it. Where is the common sense

I always wondered why leopard seals looks so uncanny to me and this video made me realise they don't have really visible whiskers unlike other seals which is throwing me off.

If that leopard wanted to attack anyone it would idk why everyone stressing tf out over the dog being a dog. No one got harmed no animal got harmed. As a Māori myself our people very connected to nature and spirits! Poor leopard looked tired tho 🥹 I wish I got to see it in person !
