On the 30th of august we went for a walk down to the beach and saw the leopard seal. It looked fluffy on one side and skin on the other and its face was kind of mossy. It looked sad back there was a sign that said they look sad most of the time . People had put sticks around it so kids and dogs stayed away because in the Antarctic a researcher was snorkeling and got killed by a leopard seal. It is super unlikely for a leopard seal to bite a human unless the human disturbs it a lot . it has been estimated that 200,000 leopard seal living in the wild . the Female leopard seal 2.9 to 3.6 m 8.45 to 11.7 ft males are 3.8 m 12.4 ft.

Hi Angus, the leopard seal was very cool to see and I certainly kept my distance. I think it is great that you added in some facts about the leopard seals too. Ka pai!
ReplyDeleteHI Angus, I enjoyed reading your information about leopard seals. I didn't know they were so long!! It was a little bit far away from my place for me to go and have a look but I have seen some photos online. Remember to check you have put a capital letter at the beginning of a new sentence. Great writing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great experience, Angus. It is sad about the researcher but is a good for us to remember that we need to keep our distance from animals we don't know.
