Grey Seal
Horse-head seal of the North Atlantic
Horse-head seal of the North Atlantic
Ten-limbed sprinters of the sea
Sideways masters of every shore
Big claws, deep seas, tough lives
Spotted apex hunter of the pack ice
Big noses, bigger dives.
From reef cleaners to river giants
Built to go farther, step surer.
Ear flaps, fast flippers, wild rookeries
Black ears. Big leap. Silent hunter.
Built for life underground
The little penguin of the sea-ice edge
Small spider, big reputation.
Tiny polyps, massive oceans
Haunting voice of northern lakes
The ant-eating, water-wicking lizard
Kneel, graze, and bolt to the burrow
Nature's clean-up crew from the skies
Seagrass Meadows' Gentle Grazer
Camouflage, coveys, and quick takeoff
Big ears. Small fox. Sahara night.
The kelp forest's furry keystone
Born to dive, built to soar
Still. Stalk. Strike.
