- Exhausted sea lion beaches its self in Huntington Beach, near the pier, for a much needed power nap! Lifeguards try to get the sea lion to go back into the ocean.
He's tired and just wanted to rest. They should have left him alone.
Imagine you were napping and seals suddenly surrounded you and began irritating the hell out of you
On some Australian beaches, if seals are on the beach the lifeguards just cordon off the area around them so tourists don't harass them.
Leave this poor Sea Lion alone. It is their habitat not yours. It is just trying to rest, so leave it alone.
ikr, he's not hurting anyone. Just leave him alone.
Pooper Scooper Animals also belong on this planet, or else they would have not been created.
Pooper Scooper and it is the ocean. We are invading their habitat.
pooper scooper Pretty sure animals were here before humans
inability to detect sarcasm
It's not like a beached whale or dolphin. It can waddle across the beach to the fish market and back to the ocean. Seems like it just wanted some R&R before heading back out. Share the beach.
Why can't they just leave it alone. They come on the beach and rest. It's what the do. It's their habitat to begin with. There's no reason to try and get it to go back in the ocean. Just leave it alone and do your own thing. It's not bothering anyone in the first place.
ExoYeolBaek exactly just leave it be. Maybe give it a few fish and let it have a sleep
The Sea Lion is thinking right now:
"Son of a...! I am trying to sleep here assholes!"
Let it rest because it is not hurting anyone. The poor thing is clearly exausted
The lifeguards are being assholes sine the sea-lion is probably exhausted from escaping a shark attack and the lifeguard want to scare him backing the sea. Of course if someone tried to feed the seal the lifeguards would intervene saying your doing it harm. How ironic.
Aw he looks so tired. Get him a smelt cocktail, a pillow and an umbrella for some shade. He just wants a nap.
If a seal / sea lion drinks alcohol --- IT WILL DIE.....LOL !!
"He'll have the fish tacos, and I'll just have a bite of his."
LEAVE IT THE FUCK ALONE
The most chilling sea lion on earth!
The things I hate about humans, for one, this!
pooper scooper they should slaughter us and drink our milk!
+pooper scooper So I'm guessing you hate animals?
Ricky Benitez Humans are worse than animals
I originally thought he was hurt or something but I realized he was just taking a nap
If the sea lion is exhausted and they are pushing it back into the water, would it drown from not being able to swim due to exhaustion in the first place?
They were trying to get the sea lion to go back in the water on its own will. Not really pushing the sea lion but getting in his space so that he might go back in the water and leave. But he stood his ground and the lifeguards let him stay on the beach. I watched him from the pier that morning for about 30 minutes just floating in the surf before he decided to rest on the beach.
Do lifeguards have exemptions from the laws that penalize getting close to marine mammals and harassing them? If the sea lion is sick or injured, it's pretty low to haze them to get off the beach, although it's good the lifeguards ultimately let him stay.
And aren't people in California familiar enough with wildlife to give them some space instead of crowding and gawking at them like they're bizarre alien life forms?
Yes, I am sure their actions were illegal. They were harassing it and clearly making physical contact.
If the sea lion could speak he would be saying, "My entire family has been killed by radiation from the Fukushima disaster. Every animal in the ocean is dying and everything on earth is going to die because of this disaster. Run for the hills. Leave the poor thing alone he has been thru enough damage caused by ignorant humans. He is going to die if he stays on land, he is going to die if he goes back into the carcinogenic water from radiation poisoning.
Awwww leave the big guy alone he's just resting
humans are strange creatures. Am I the only one who finds it weird that they're just standing and staring?
I don’t know but us seals get confused about it
Those people were really close not to mention blocking his route to the ocean
I live on Hawaii and instead of pushing them back to sea we put a boarder around them to keep the people out why don't they do that?
Just let it chill for a while
WTF HB lifeguards. Leave the seal lion alone and post a temp sign that tells beachgoers to not harass the animal or they'll risk a fine or ban. It's not hard.
It's a good thing there were guys with tramp stamps around to poke at the exhausted sea lion. For a minute there, I was afraid it would be left alone or someone would call a biologist to see if it was sick.
Why disturb the sea lion?
how dare they those heartless lifeguards trying to get the sea lion go back into the ocean
Why couldn't they just have just left them alone? They were laying down, they weren't a threat.
Resting time😊😊😊
While on the one hand I agree that it is most likely not a danger to anyone and is just wanting to rest. The lifeguards have a responsibility to the bathers to keep the beach as safe as possible. And while there may be some adventurous souls that might want to go up and pet it, this could prove dangerous since Sean Lions can be aggressive if they feel threatened. And even though the chance is very slim that it will become aggressive with no provocation, the life guards don't want to take that chance.
It just wants to rest. Leave it alone.! Poor seal
Poor sea lion. Probably exhausted from running from all them damn killer whales to stay alive
just bug off, the sea lion just want to get a nap as to reserve energy
it wants to sleep
maybe its hiding from a shark waiting off the coast
LEAVE THE POOR BABY ALONE THATS THEIR HABBITAT
So many nosy people wanting a picture that others had to push him back to sea.This is why happen when you can leave a animal alone. No one said a damn thing about it.smh
Locals only
C'MON lifeguards how do you feel when you get off work Tired and wanna rest on your bed same goes with the sea lion let him rest thats his Relaxing area
Leave it alone! It was probably tired and wanted to rest on the beach. It didn't need the crowd and attention it got. Poor thing.
I am chilling on the beach leave me alone.
the people are stupid for not giving it space and leaving it alone. The lifeguards are stupid for not letting it rest and trying to push it back into the water.
Lifeguards violate Federal law
Leave the sea lion to lay in peace, he's been swimming non stop throughout the ocean's water and trying to avoid sharks and other predators that might want to harm him or eat him.
Let him rest where he llay to catch his breathe and strength.
They are harmless creature unless you approach them first then they have a right to be defensive.
lol as usual, everyone is an expert.
Why couldn't u just let him be
WHY DONT YOU MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, PEOPLE ?? He / She was resting, let him/her --- he/she was not running after / attacking / scaring someone, right ?? When he/she does, that time you people take all measures to defend yourselves , that is fine ----otherwise, JUST LEAVE HIM/HER ALONE !!!
just let him be probably he was able to get away from the orcas....and yes I agreed with the comments below it's their natural habitat
Exactly he's trying to rest on the beach why don't they just leave him the freak alone there's nothing wrong with him
I would of left the sea lion alone let it relax am sure they swim alot. If it started to cause trouble then ok try to put it back into the water.
Damn i feel bad for the sea lion being harassed by all these people. it's not like her life is endanger since sea lions also like to rest and lie on beach sand since it's their natural habitat.
leave the sea lion alone !!!!!!!!!
Give him some food you dummies
Shame on human
Leave the animal alone.
It's not your beach.
Jerks. Is that even a job. Beach bums, low pay know-bodies
Let the animal rest in peace & why stare.
