Description
Description

Weddell seals are comparatively large Phacids that love to devote plenty of their time under Antarctic ice. These seals are non-migratory and find life underwater convenient for their survival either by finding prey or avoiding predators. Weddell seals have a cat-like face with a bulky body but shorter fore-flippers. Males are less large and less heavy than females, however, their head and muzzle are a little broader and their neck thicker than females. Additionally, Weddell seals are social, often congregating in small groups and prefer to rest on their sides on fast ice. They are also vocal, doing a variety of sounds.

Pinnipeds, also commonly known as seals, are large furry fin or flipper footed carnivorous semi-aquatic marine mammals. While pinnipeds live primarily in the ocean, they can come on land for long periods of time. Millions of years ago, pinnipeds were land-dwelling creatures.
