@viralhog: A seal in the forest? Part two: I went up before sunrise to see if I could find some beavers at a location where I’ve seen plenty of beaver signs. When I was walking, I saw a big grey stone in front of me that I just ignored. Suddenly it moved and I realized that it was a seal in the middle of the forest. I couldn’t even believe my own eyes and I stayed completely still for a few minutes while we looked at each other. When it looked like he didn’t mind me I calmly sat down and took out my camera from the backpack. I laid on my stomach and got plenty of pictures when the seal started to crawl towards me, eventually getting too close for me to use my big camera. He even came up to my tripod and gave it a good sniff. He stayed right next to me, probably like 20 centimeters away, for a little while before he kept crawling in the other direction. I remained in my position until the seal eventually entered the river and swam away. This is not the end of this encounter but it’s too long for me to include it all in one video. It has a happy ending though, I can tell you that much. Filmed by Patrik Luther, Licensed by ViralHog
