Episode Information
Much loved clowns of the sea, seals are endlessly fascinating. Even though they’re not much more than bloated sausages on land, they’re agile hunters and supremely graceful in the water. They en-tertain us with dramatic courtships, an endlessly playful sense of curiosity and some of the cutest babies on the planet. From the cold-loving grey seals of the North Atlantic with their chubby wetsuits to the fur seals cooking on the sweltering beaches of the Galapagos, seals have found a way to thrive in almost every coastal environment. They’re versatile and adaptable animals, but life is rare-ly easy for seals, whether they’re facing predation from larger animals or the challenges that hu-manity places on their blubbery shoulders. And yet all over the world they consistently rise to the challenge, and always seem to have fun doing it.
