There are already hundreds of seals hitting the beach on Cape Cod.

A pilot took a video over the weekend while he was flying over Monomoy Island near Chatham.

The pilot says the video is causing quite a stir on social media, and raising concerns about the seal population.

The video has only been up on Facebook for a little over a day, but it has been viewed more than 240,000 times.
