Seal in the Suburbs

Seals are fascinating mammals that live in the sea around the coasts of many countries all over the world. The seashore is their natural habitat, where they can come ashore to rest and sun themselves on rocks, catch fish in shallow waters, and rear their pups on land. They seldom go far from the water’s edge, but have been known to venture further occasionally. This story is based on true facts.
