Commonly found in the cold waters of Halifax, these mammals are adapted to an aquatic life, having streamlined bodies and layers of blubber to insulate them against the cold. Their diet predominantly comprises fish, octopuses, and squids. Seals are often a subject of fascination due to their playful nature and expressive eyes, which convey a deep sense of intelligence and curiosity. Conservation efforts are crucial for seals as they face threats from habitat destruction, climate change, and fishing nets.
