Leopard Seal . 

Leopard seals primarily inhabit the Antarctic pack ice, but during autumn and winter animals disperse northward throughout the Southern Ocean, sometimes visiting New Zealand. This one came ashore to rest in Purakaunui inlet , Otago , New Zealand , 10th September 2022 .

They are the slimmest among all seal species, always tired and red-eyed. One wonders, how do they even survive in the cold waters without a fat layer under their skin... 🐻‍❄🏔 Beautiful animal. 🤗

Those teeth. Penguins beware! Great video thanks.

Looks happy with that lovely smile,albeit with it's mouth closed! Bless it's heart.

Nasty looking teeth and such an innocent smile. This is the life!!! I have never seen Leopard seals, but we have lots of sea lions off our coast. They are quite aggressive on land if you come too close, but in the water they they are like playful puppies and swim around you, under you and above you when you dive, as if they are showing off how much better they can swim 👍

Darn birds kept disturbing the leopard seal's sleep! 😍😍😎😎
