Warning: If you are a photographer traveling through Antartica, you might want to be prepared for a little forced PDA.

At least, that was the case for Charlie Bird, while he documented the route of explorer Tom Crean's final expedition.

If you'd like to see the full documented expedition, click over here to the RTE player. If you just want a quick dose of warm-and-fuzzies, we've got you covered.

Want more adorable seal footage? Watch as a baby seal is almost shocked to be let back into the wild after its rehabilitation.

They are very cute and heavy. Not afraid of humans either. This guy is pretty brave, I actually commend him for almost being crushed. Don't think I could just lay there like that. Not that I don't think this is wonderful, it's amaizing they would treat him just like another seal and snuggle him. To me it proves alot about nature and grace. It's just that if it had laid across his chest, the film crew would've had to pull it off before it suffocated him. It would have then barked in protest. From there you can extrapilate all sorts of scenarios, good and bad.

Yeah, and the thing could rip his face off, too.

But in this case it looks more like "Get a room".

Just sayin'!....

Yeah, but the mother can't be too far, and she weighs considerably more.
