A cute video is going viral this week showing a seal make friends with a man on a boat!

The man was out on his boat one day when he decided to snap a photo of himself in front of the water. He had no idea at the time that he would end up not being alone in the image that resulted!

As he prepared to take a selfie, a friendly seal appeared out of nowhere over his shoulder, photobombing the unsuspecting man. As the seal quickly made friends with him, the man decided to take a video instead so that he could show off his new pal to the world. Needless to say, the seal immediately stole the show in the footage!

“Here’s my new friend,” the man explained as the two of them faced the camera.

The video has quickly gone viral, being viewed over three million times by people all over the world!

“That’s adorable. Animals never cease to amaze,” one social media user commented, with another adding, “They really are half-fish half-dog.”

“Oh wow! What an amazing experience. Lucky you!” a third user wrote.

There really is nothing like a cute animal video to brighten up your day!
