Deep waves can be really hard to conquer for a baby seal, but at least she has mom close by

We all hate ocean waves from time to time. They knock us down, drag us under and sometimes keep us from going back to shore.

But imagine how difficult heavy waves are for a small baby seal? Pretty darn difficult. Thankfully, mama was nearby.

Watch this mama and baby pair truly struggle to get back to land. Finally, they make it. If only a surfer was nearby to give them a ride.
