Harbor Seal Cuteness
At the Seaside Aquarium in Seaside, Oregon they have a special tank where you can feed the harbor seals.
Seaside Aquarium is one of the oldest aquariums on the west coast (est. 1937). They were the first aquarium in the world to successfully breed harbor seals in captivity.
The seals have an area that provides them with another pool and a large dry resting area for night sleeping. These areas are available at all times for the seals; however, they seem to choose to spend the majority of their day interacting with the humans that come to see them. The seals don't have to beg for food, as they are fed on a regularly scheduled basis.
They are so much fun to watch. They seem to enjoy what they are doing and have developed their own special personalities and tricks to demand attention and get food. This one would "smile" and rock back and forth on this rock. Yet another would sit back and slap her belly (video clip). One of them would come up front and when you weren't expecting it, she would splash all the silly humans! Some would just look at you with those darling little faces!! You just can't help but smile when watching all their silly antics!!
