The head features a menacing expression with a slightly open mouth, revealing sharp teeth, hinting at the seal's aggressive nature. The figure’s body is posed as if it is gliding through the water, capturing the animal’s natural movement.
The Papo - Leopard Seal measures approximately 4.7 inches long.
The leopard seal is the second-largest species of seal and one of the top predators in the Antarctic ecosystem. Known for their distinctive spotted coats, leopard seals are named after their feline counterparts due to their spotted fur and predatory behavior. They have a powerful jaw with large canines, making them effective hunters.
Leopard seals primarily feed on krill, fish, and penguins, and occasionally, they target other seals. These animals are solitary, spending most of their time in the cold waters around Antarctica. Their adaptability to extreme conditions and their formidable hunting skills make them a key species in the Antarctic marine environment. Despite their predatory nature, leopard seals are also known for their curiosity toward humans, often approaching boats and divers in Antarctic waters.
