Seals are not our friends!
I looked at the article. I guess someone did get a chunk of flesh removed. It seems that would be so easy for such a powerful animal. Pretty scary, especially if it has to do with pollution. It is still amazing to me that something more serious hasn't happened, or that these incidents aren't more common.

I often think the same of horses (and anything else we play with that is so much bigger and more powerful than we are). They could trample us to mush in no time at all, but they hardly ever do, they meekly submit to being pushed around, squashed by around-hauls, mouth-hauls put in their tender gums, etc (to borrow some technical terms from the very funny Windsurfer's Lessons in Horse Riding).
