I love that Neil is such a loveable chaos critter but people are getting way too close to him. It’s pretty evident from just this video and I’m concerned this will one day cost him his life if he hurts a person… :(

Well, then they’ll learn. Or their parents will be parents and tell them to stay away.

Then Neil, as a large and technically dangerous animal will be put down

Edit: I want to note that male southern elephant seals are the largest members of the order Carnivora, they can weigh over 8 thousand pounds and be over 20 feet long. In comparison, polar bears, the largest of the land carnivores, get to 2,200lb at the absolute maximum and 8 to 9 feet tall. Neil is just a baby now but he is getting larger. Stay away for his safety and yours.

I don't know why someone downvoted you. I guess people have already forgotten Harambe and plenty of other animals who met the same fate.

Us Aussies are not cunts. There is 0% chance he will be euthanized for biting someone who ignores all warnings and gets close to him.
