    Drawn in response to this viral tweet.
    The tweet links to a livestream from Seal Rehabilitation and Research Centre located in Pieterburen, The Netherlands. On the stream you can watch all eleven of these rescued pups do seal things and Japan is really enthralled by them and so am I

    It even reached the national news here in the Netherlands:

    NOS.nl: Pieterburen seals go viral in Japan, donations are pouring in
    RTVnoord.nl: Pieterburen seals go viral in Japan: 'symbol of good luck'

    Their YouTube subscriber count has now increased by tenfold and the livestream now has thousands of viewers when it used to be around 100 on a good day. You can see in the Tweet that the stream only had 8 viewers at that point. They are now even providing English and Japanese translations while doing Q&A's. An interesting tidbit:

    Lucky symbol
    But what do the Japanese actually have with seals? Boshoven now knows what it is like: 'That is one of the things we found out in conversations with people. When a seal hangs in the water with its head straight up, it looks like a tea leaf in a cup of tea. In Japan that is a symbol of happiness.'
