00:02From smashing street signs to blocking roads and causing a commotion.
00:09Neil LaCille has become a star attraction in Tasmania, even if he spends most of his time fast asleep.
00:17It's pretty exciting, he kind of just looks like a big lump of rock from over here but he's very
00:22cute.
00:23He's naughty, he knocks down stuff and I like doing that too.
00:27He's got a bit of a typical Aussie larrikin vibe to him.
00:31Neil's antics have turned him into an internet sensation.
00:34People are really enjoying the fact that he seems to be a bit of a rule breaker.
00:38You might call him a folk hero.
00:40Experts say one of the reasons so many people love Neil is because they ascribe human characteristics to his behaviour.
00:48We think he's being really cheeky and he's being mischievous and he's being a rebel.
00:52And of course that isn't actually the case, he's just playing the behaviour of a wild seal.
00:56Tasmanian authorities say it appears Neil has now headed out to sea after bringing so much joy during his recent
01:03stay.
01:04He does a few huffs and puffs, he's gorgeous.
01:07I love that he's just doing what he wants to do and no one can really stop him.
01:10A superstar seal whose popularity seems unstoppable.
01:15His wife is too young and says he's a little daring.
01:15He's just doing what he wants, I don't want to hear.
01:15He's just doing what he wants for.
01:15He wants to think about that he's just bearing on the way he wants to always keep up a ball.
01:15You
