On July 7, a Kazakh netizen shared a video of a seal being knocked unconscious by tourists at a beach in the town of Kurik on the east shore of the Caspian Sea so that children could take photos with it. The video shows a group of people attacking the seal with sticks and stones as it approached the shore, while others gathered to watch the brutal attack and did nothing to stop the violence. One witness told local media: "They knocked the seal unconscious and dragged it out of the water so the kids could take pictures and have a great time." After that, they threw the motionless corpse back into the sea. I don't know if it's still alive. ”
A similar incident was reported in Aktau City, where a group of tourists threw stones at a baby seal. The environmental department said the actions of the people in the video were outrageous and that seals were curious animals that often approached humans. Police are currently pursuing the perpetrators of both cases.
