The Sydney Seal Has Returned And It's Bloody Glorious

    Unseal your heart for the beast from the deep.

    Remember back in October last year and Sydney was in the grip of seal fever? Well, BuzzFeed feels a sickness in the air because HE'S BACK!

    G'day. Say hi to our latest visitor to @SydOperaHouse today! Just taking it easy... Photo by @biglenlittlelen

    The slippery fish-breathed stunner arrived again this morning at the VIP entrance of the Sydney Opera House. BuzzFeed has left messages with the NSW Office of Environment to check whether he's the same New Zealand fur seal as last year.

    BUT DOES IT REALLY MATTER?! HE'S A SEAL AND SYDNEY HAS HIM AGAIN.

    no big deal, we just have a cool seal that comes and hangs out on our world-famous opera house. no biggie. whatever it's just sydney

    Prime Minister Tony Abbott is no doubt thrilled about the situation and we're tipping a fight for the hearts and minds of Australians.

    With a shark currently patrolling the NSW coastline it makes you realise how bloody amazing Australia's marine life is.

    hmm a shark came to hang around newcastle when I was there and now the seal has returned to sydney at the same time as me. coincidence?

    Welcome home Sydney seal. Enjoy our sights and our hearts.
