oh my gosh, mama seal is making the hole bigger for the pup. heart eyes.
Is she making it bigger so the pup would slip in?
or making a little ramp so it's easier for him to get out
Breaking away the ice, because it's so cold there that the breathing hole will freeze shut. And without that hole to breathe, they'll risk drowning.
🥲
the noise when he got in "NONO ITS TOO COLD"
Pup: "You can make that hole as big as you want, I'm not going back in there. Too cold. I'm moving to Hawaii."
watching her grind at the ice made my teeth hurt
i wonder if this is the same seal that's famous for saying eggs
have you looked at the username lately.
mine or theirs? cause i don’t really recognize theirs ngl
@@thetwistedsamurai no! have you looked through their videos? You should.
very old comment sorry but i don’t think so. looks like a different breathing hole and the videos are uploaded very long times apart. i hope the crybaby seal is doing well in the wild
NOW THAT IS A TOUGH LIFE. Keeping that hole open with her teeth. Hole freezes up and no more food. Respect to seals!
Seal Mom: YOUNG MAN! YOU ARE GOING TO LEARN TO SWIM AND YOU ARE GOING TO LIKE IT! Seal Pup: NOOOOOOOO! *throws tantrum on the snow*
she is such a good mama, trying very hard to make her baby swim, god bless this mama.
I see greatness in you seal, you should never give up and always keep going further, you will grow up to be the legend!
BLEH BLEH BLEH BLEH
This pup, who also loves to swim, says "Good work! keep it up, pup!"
Didn't take him long to be long "Fuck THIS shit, I'm out." Lol Stupid cold water
1:12 "Lemme out, lemme out, lemme out!"
Evil mama! That's some tough love right there. xD :'D
Wdym?
It looks like he fell in, like the other seal who says egg, however, this pup took much less time to get in the water.
This one hade the confidence of being nearby its mommy.
I love how we can refer to a wild animal as "seal who says egg"
BULA! BULA! BULA! BULA!
mom its cold!
HELP! LEMME OUT! HELP! COLD!
when you try to get up, but the ground says no
Mum is good worker.
l'egg!
Hold on! 1:20

Бедный ребенок, вода такая холодная! 🤣 Но как же смешно! Он сваливается в лунку бочком, сразу выскакивает, ругаясь, а мама помогает ему вылезти на первый раз! 😝🦭
Baby and mama ❤️
1:05〜♥
1:07 Falling for his mother's cold
it looks like he is drowning
Did anyone notice.. he himself came front and fell. Mom didn't even touch him
Not Jesse Quick, not Marlize DeVoe, but JESSE DEVOE
0:53 WTF ?
seal moms work hard to make sure breathing holes are shaped so clumsy pups can get out of the water easier!
They keep the holes open using their teeth.
eeeeegggg
Such a miracle how these creatures thrive perfectly in unbearable conditions for humans, unless they have very good gear on. Revelation 4:11. Thou art worthy, O LORD.
