Great video! Thanks for posting that Hanklin. Looking at a mouth that big, with all those teeth, would have freaked me out too!

All I know is....That was one bad-a$$ mama leopard seal.......

Touching though. Damn. Trying to feed the fool.

Whether orcas, or seals, or porpoisi, or whatever....There seems to be some 'link' between humans and such mammals.

It's sentiments like this that pretty much lean me AGAINST endeavors like whaling. Not to get into any eco-arguments....but my question would be WHY do it? I mean....Native tribes in Alaska, Canada, Greenland, etc......Sure......They need to, and they'll never put a dent in the overall populations.....But commercial endeavors from Japan, Norway, etc.?

Oh well. Off-topic. Sorry.

I think the only reason she was trying to feed him was to fatten him up for a later meal.
