They are distinguished by their spotted coats and vary in color from grey to brown. Harbor seals are relatively solitary, but they can be seen gathered in groups during breeding season. Their diet consists mainly of fish, but they also consume shellfish, bringing them frequently into contact with fishing communities. Conservation efforts focus on protecting their natural habitats and mitigating human-seal conflicts, particularly with local fisheries.
