now you were in the G whites domain and he-she had every right to protect
it from a interloper such as your self. It was only doing what they do. You
were infringing on their rights by paddling there. Same with the sea lion,
it gave you a warning by growling at you, that should of been enough

smacked the Sealion with half my paddle- this is pure animal abuse, then
threw the other half at the Great White Shark is just another horrible
abuse of animals. Then you held a Octopus against its will for your own
pleasure "dinner" what a disgrace

whales are a protected species and have every right to do what ever they
please and you just have to grin and bear it. Then you abused that poor sea
lion again, lets see mutible abuses
