Some idiots in San Diego decided it would be fun to get too close to a group of sea lions… until the marine mammals made them run for their lives.
Check out this video from La Jolla… showing two bikini-clad girls desperately trying to escape some huge sea lions… after getting too close to the wild animals.
The video starts with the girls leaning against a cliff in the cove, with sea lions sunbathing on the rocks around them… they have their phones out and try to take some photos, but the sea lions aren’t having it, and one persecution ensues.
The women are being barked at and followed as they try to swim to shore… and the alpha of the group warns them that they are NOT welcome.
Sea lions are known for having a very strong bite… and these pups are lucky these creatures didn’t get close enough to cause any harm.
San Diego has already been forced to close large swaths of beaches in La Jolla because of humans’ excessive proximity to sea lions… but it seems some people will never learn. 😔
