A seal with a penchant for playing with traffic cones and lying in the sun is attracting attention at a beach near Hobart — some of it unwelcome.

There are concerns curious humans are getting too close to the animal

The nearly two-year-old has received growing internet fame in that time, with a social media account sharing photos and videos.The account posted on Tuesday, urging people not to interfere with the seal."Over the past few days, I have had many people email through to share a few isolated and sad stories of Neil being poked, prodded and having things thrown at him," author Kirsty said.Neil has been visiting the beach since late June.

"I saw some people trying to touch the seal and the seal sort of jumped up and had a go at them; they learnt pretty quickly that that's not what you do."
