Those ladies totally get it!

Love the aunties🖤

Congratulations for another keiki monk seal birthed at Kaimana. Glad to see the beach is given over to the short time it takes for baby to become independent. Glad to see everyone interviewed is on the same page.

Beautiful 😍 thank you 🙏. Keep security 24/7.

Awesome!!! Cuzz some people nevah know how follow instructions, lidaat..

Nice my beach is closed to protect nature positive lifestyle Hawaiian dream

The state is taking better care of this seal then any of it citizens.

Paddled there Sunday. Still can get in, great to protect them. Its always someone who doesn't care or follow instructions.

Smart!!

Can they close laniakea now????

About time they did that. To many idiots getting in the seals personal space

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽‼️🤙🏽

As much as we love animals, this is ridiculous.

Armed guards for seals, kids in school?naaaaaaaaa

That's definitely a Californian couple and seals are nothing on the West coast. They have no clue about this being anything particularly special or rare.

Please respect Hawaii. Just because you are tourist, doesn't give you the right to hover over animals on the beach. I've seen hundreds of people nearly touching the seals of Hawaii. I've reported them but to no avail. Please to all tourists, think of the next generations. There won't be anymore endangered wildlife of Hawaii if people keep causing them stress. When you go up to wildlife even in the water, you cause them to have stress which releases adrenaline in the animal, wreaking all kinds of havoc on their bodies that we cannot see. Think about it, they come on the beach to rest.....Would you like someone hovering over you taking pictures when you are trying to sleep????? Imagine all day long, tourists...hundreds of tourists, taking pictures non stop from the time the sun comes up and when it goes down. How could you sleep if people did that to you???? The signs tell people to give the animal 50 feet yet people are within arms reach. They blocked it off because even with the signs up, people don't listen. That baby monk seal deserves the fighting chance to live in an environment where she's not exposed to stress all day long- from the time it was born. Please respect the wildlife of Hawaii...or there won't be anymore for Future Generations. There is no excuse. With the amount of information easily availble with just a few clicks on the internet, you can easily learn how to be around seals, turtles, dolphins, etc. in Hawaii. Do your research before you come on Vacation. Please, Hawaii is all about Ohana. The animals, the people and even the land is our family. We are all one.

Nice. Honestly bring back pandemic protocols for the respect of nature
