It is amazing. I wonder if it was a rehabilitated/released seal?
All I can say is that this is not a normal experience with a wild animal and would like to mention that seals do have sharp teeth and will bite. I don't want people trying to snuggle with wild seals.
Also, she seemed to speak seal and was able to interpret the seal's body language. I liked that she didn't move towards it and let it come to her and she never used her hands to pet the seal.

That was so beautiful it made me cry. I think that must be what heaven is like, we all get to cuddle with an elephant seal.
