Children threw stones at a seal and a woman grabbed it by its tail on a beach in the north east of England. The seal had to be moved to allow it to rest, a swimmer who witnessed the incidents said.
Donna had just been for a swim at Hornsea, close to Hull, on Monday and saw the seal in the water. She said it then went on to the shore for a rest but then a group of children began harassing it, reports HullLive.
She said: “I was absolutely shocked to see that as it came to shore some children around 12 years old started throwing stones at it. They were told off but then a woman came marching up and grabbed the seal by its tail with the aim of flinging it back in the sea.
