So the men studied the creature, and it seemed to study the men for about two hours. Then the seal creature gave them a final look, and jumped in the hole.

I guess. Freaking Basque. The Basque even believe the magic seal is communicating with them over the radio using a system of beeps and clicks as language which they can understand.
