Cape Town - What happens when a seal and a dog meet on the beach? A whole lot of interspecies cuddling!
Well, that's if a video recently uploaded to YouTube is anything to go by.

The footage shows a Labrador and a seal making each other's acquaintance during a walk on the beach. The seal joyously flops on over to the dog, who admittedly, does seem a bit shellshocked by the sudden affection from his water-based cousin.
We have to admit, we're not too sure how we feel about the people patting the wild animal, but all seems to end well for everyone involved.
