Police increase patrols after camera catches women harassing seals.
SAN DIEGO − A newly installed seal webcam caught two women harassing seals at the Children's Pool in La Jolla last week, an animal activist said.
In video from a camera installed on a condemned lifeguard tower, the women appeared to be sitting on the seals, pulling their flippers and kicking them, according to Larry Wan of Western Alliance for Nature Conservancy, who sponsors the webcam.
All of the seals retreated to the water and it was unknown if animals suffered injuries.
