    The Leopard Seal is about 10 feet long and has a mouth larger than a polar bear! They feed on the penguins. Resting on an ice floe:
    13740048-M.

    Hunting lunge at a penguin (just missed):
    13740027-M.

    Another one resting on the ice:
    13738635-M.

    We also saw Weddell Seals:
    13737764-M.

    And Crabeater Seals:

    I just can't believe all you have seen. That is so wonderful.

    Great looking seals Bob.

    I had no idea that they ate penguins. Interesting.
