***About Harbor Seals

***: Harbor seals, scientifically known as Phoca vitulina, are commonly found across the northern coasts of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. These seals are adept at navigating both saltwater and freshwater environments, often seen lounging on rocky shores or bobbing in coastal waters. Their diet consists primarily of fish, squid, and crustaceans. Harbor seals are known for their solitary nature but can be seen in loose groups during resting periods. Pups are born with a soft, white lanugo coat, which they shed as they mature. Conservation efforts are crucial for maintaining healthy populations, particularly in areas impacted by human activity.
