Seal Takes Over Beachfront Hotel Room in the Netherlands and Falls Asleep

In the Dutch city of Vlissingen, the animal protection service was called to a hotel where a sleeping seal was found in one of the rooms. This was reported by NL Times.

The woman who stayed at the hotel rented a so-called beach room, a separate room with access to the beach, and went for a walk with her dog on Tuesday evening.

When she returned, she found an unexpected visitor in the room. She then went to a nearby restaurant and called animal rights activists.

The Animal Protection Fund of Flanders, which arrived at the scene, was surprised to find a seal in the hotel room.

‘It was a strange sight: the guests standing outside were a little nervous, while inside a completely relaxed seal was sleeping,’ the foundation's representatives describe.

As animal rights activists explain, grey seals can sleep in the most unexpected places - even in the middle of the road.

The seal, which became quite angry after waking up, was taken from the room in a special container and released to a safe and quiet place.

As The Gaze previously reported, an unusual exhibition on climate change opens in the Ukrainian capital on 6 February. This is a joint Ukrainian-Peruvian exhibition under the symbolic title ‘Planet on the Grill: The Vulnerable Worlds of Antarctica and the Amazon’. It combines photographs from two ecosystems with opposite temperatures: the hot Amazonian forests and the icy Antarctic.
