A seal in Cape Town was continuously harassed by people who threw stones, prodded it with sticks, and even let dogs attack it, leading to immense stress and ultimately its demise. This incident highlights the tragic consequences of harassing coastal wildlife and the need for education and awareness about responsible conduct towards them. It is crucial to understand and appreciate their natural behaviors and allow them to rest undisturbed.
