About the SeaLeopard
The SeaLeopard is the second largest species of seal in the Antarctic. Its only natural predator is the killer whale. The SeaLeopard is the most formidable and skilled subsea hunter of all seals. When hunting, a SeaLeopard is sometimes submerged in Deepwater as it is capable of withstanding high pressures. They feed on warm-blooded prey. SeaLeopard’s use their powerful jaws and long teeth to eat their prey, which can be penguins, smaller seals, fish and squid. They often wait underwater near an ice shelf and snare the birds just as they enter the water after jumping off the ice. They may also come up beneath seabirds resting on the water surface and snatch them in their jaws. Shellfish are a far less dramatic prey but still an important part of the leopard seal’s diet.
They are the most formidable hunters of all the seals and the only ones that feed on warm-blooded prey, such as other seals. Leopard seals use their powerful jaws and long teeth to kill smaller seals, fish, and squid.
