niggling, nibbling, and adoring
The seal, on the other hand, became more animated and eager to engage in more play with its newfound companions. By that point, it had begun to playfully nibble on Grayson’s glove and had even managed to get Grayson’s hand into its mouth! It was impossible to believe what they were seeing and hearing since these seals were unlike anything they had ever seen or heard about before.
More Games to Play
When the seal determined that belly rubbing was no longer necessary, it swam back up to Grayson’s side. The diver’s hand moved under the seal’s chin and began clawing at it with his index finger. The seal appeared to enjoy it as well, as evidenced by the fact that it appears to be smiling happily in the video.
