    Top theories:
    1. The seal was already full, and was mostly just toying with the penguin.
    2. The seal was less comfortable on land, and the penguin's threats to peck it got it irrationally spooked. I mean, its eyes were right there within reach.
    3. The seal spared the penguin on a genuine merciful whim. It's possible! Animal brains are strange.
    4. The seal was tired, and didn't want to keep chasing the penguin if the penguin was going to keep escaping it.

      @alexisgrunden1556 4 роки тому +323

      Leopard seals are probably the most (and if not _the_ most, then certainly in the top 10!) aggro seals/pinnipeds. But even they are still seals, and share two psychological traits in common with their gentler cousins: curiosity and a love of play. All large-brained creatures love to play; it's mental exercise, and the smarter the critter, the more creative their playtime gets. Had this seal been hungry or even just feeling a little peckish, that birb would have been toast. Instead, as traumatizing for the penguin as it was, the seal decided to just play with it, and hone his/her own skills and have a bit of fun.
      It's a lot like how cats will play with small animals; sometimes they'll kill them, and sometimes they won't.

      Technology, gone are the days where they have to have a camera crew operating a single camera trying to chase down some action. Now they just scout with aerial and underwater drones and find interesting things. Animals are always hunting so it’s not that rare to find with a lot of wild life.

      @Jakjak I think it's a combo of some CGI and real footage. Occasionally they mix in green screen real animal footage composites or some CGI to help tell the story. We as humans engage more when theres a story rather than just earing animal facts. The sound is always fake due to it being impossible to put a mic on an animal without disturbing it. There's a few documentaries out there on how the footage is captured, it can often take months for 50 seconds of footage in really harsh conditions.
