Harbor seals may live as long as 25 years; Social Structure: Harbor seals form large, unstable groups; Behavior: Harbor seals are very curious animals and are also very friendly to humans; Status: Endangered: marine pollution, hunting; Interesting Facts: Harbor seals can be differentiated from sea lions by several factors, including that they do not have external ears and cannot walk on their fore or hind limbs (rather, they inch along on their bellies). |
