Description:

Stupidity of mankind?

Hundreds of tourists travelling day by day to the northern most point of Denmark where North and Baltic Sea meeting each other. Young seals try to rest at the beach but are constantly disturbed by the human passengers. People taking selfies with the cute animals, stroking and throwing little fishes at them.

A guide told me: "They are acting like being in the zoo." In fact they surrendered to tell the tourists how to behave concerning the seals. "If the young seals won't get enough time to rest at the beach the may die in a few weeks..."

Horrific scenery at such a beautiful place.

EXIF: 560mm, 1/800, f/8, Iso 400
