TIL yesterday at Kijkduin beach (The Hague, NL):
- seals are solitary animals
- pups leave their mother at around 4 weeks
- they come tonret on the beach
- grey seals can go as far as the dunes
- normal seals tend to flee when approached
- grey seals tend to fight when approached
- they have teeth like wolfs, so best not to get in that fight
- best thing to do when seeing a seal on a Dutch beach is report it (📞144 or a seal sanctuary like a-seal)
- keep distance (30m), keep dogs on leish and move on (but keep an eye on idiots that look like they want to harm the animal)
