A Louisiana couple has apologized and will pay a fine after a TikTok video shows a woman touching an endangered Hawaiian monk seal at a beach in Hawaii.

The video sparked outrage from Hawaii residents after it was circulated on social media. It had been viewed more than 37,000 times on @hhhviral on Instagram as of Monday afternoon.

The husband, Stephen, said he and his wife, Lakyn, have received death threats and requested their last name not be published. His wife’s TikTok account has since been set to private.

In April 2018 NOAA fined an Alabama man $1,500 after he posted videos on Instagram of himself touching an endangered Hawaiian monk seal and harassing a sea turtle while vacationing on Kauai.

The authorities fricking love these morons.

Half the time, they don’t even have to do any investigating.

Dumbasses post themselves breaking the law all the freaking time.

Stop putting your shite on the internet.

It is considered a Class C felony to touch or harass a Hawaiian monk seal under state and federal laws. Violators face penalties of up to five years in prison and up to a $50,000 fine.


Oh, come on... that state is so fricked up.

Their existence, particularly the wife’s, likely revolves around what people they don’t know thinks of them.
