Episode 268: The Legendary Leopard Seal

Episode 268: The Legendary Leopard Seal

We go back to the ocean and way down under to Antarctica to cover a top predator, the Leopard Seal. Besides Orcas, nothing can match this top dog of our southern oceans. Leopard Seals are notorious for hunting penguins, as well as other small and medium sized animals. Yet, they have so much mystery about them and are very much understudied. Of what we do know, will fascinate you. This week we talk about everything Leopard Seals and also have a brief chat about the "Doomsday Glacier," which we all need to be made aware of. For those interested, as mentioned in the podcast, the NOAA Sea Level Riser Viewer can be accessed HERE For one cup of "good" coffee a month you can support your favorite podcast on Patreon and give back to conservation.
