Did you know that seals are often referred to as “water dogs” because they are curious and friendly? Seals also like to cuddle with people they see diving! The video below was taken by some divers that were enjoying the mysteries of the ocean near the Scilly Isles in the UK. Not just one – but a group of seals decided to join in the fun!
Gary, one of the divers, seemed to be of particular interest to the water dogs. Gary happily played along with the seal as it pulled on his hand.
Then the seal came in and wanted to cuddle! Or maybe, the seal just wanted a tummy rub! In any case, everyone agreed that it was a magical moment! After some cuddle time, the seal swam off.
