I recently came across this fascinating short film about one of National Geographic’s cameramen recalling his most memorable experience while on a photography expedition in Antarctica. These formidable leviathans, which can weigh up to 1300 pounds and grow to be 11 feet long, have a reputation for being ferocious predators. As you will see from these highly unusual images, they also appear to have a compassionate side too! They are the only species of seal that prey on other seal species.
