Featuring ringed seals Katsunori, Yo-chan and Ponsuke. I can't get enough of these three. This is how perfectly round creatures square off.

REST IN PEACE, PONSUKE

—

This is a notice from Seal Land.

On May 4th, 2023, Ponsuke-kun the ringed seal passed away at 7 years old.

Ponsuke-kun was conserved* April 17th, 2016, and from then on, the cute face where he smiles and sticks out his tongue, and his charming personality caused a lot of people to love him.

*Conserved meaning he was put into an animal conservatory

Because for a few days his appetite was declining, he was transferred to a seal pen, and then medical treatment was given; But on April 4th, he went on a trip to heaven under the watch of his caretakers.

Because the direct cause of death has not been established, from now on there are plans for an autopsy and pathological examination and etc. to investigate the cause of death.

Once again, to everyone who doted on Ponsuke-kun, we thank you, and we express our feelings of gratitude for “Ponsuke” *

*Im not very confident with the translation of this sentence.

Furthermore, from May 5th through the 28th 2023 there will be a altar (for flowers) installed inside the observation room.

Pon-chan, thank you. We love you.

-On behalf of the caretakers.

#6 - Komuke's Introduction

Source. Posted April 6, 2021.

Translation:

Today we introduce to you Komuke-chan, a spotted seal💐

She's a bit of a glutton, and when feeding time comes, she's the first one to run to the caretakers 😋🍴🐟

She will urge the caretakers by looking into the bucket and rubbing her nose on the floor of the fence, as if she's asking "Is there any fish left?" (Haha)

Her dictionary definitely doesn't have the phrase "no appetite"✊🏻

I wasn't sure how to translate the "no appetite" part, but I hope it makes sense! (I'm still learning, so if you have any corrections for me I'd be happy to hear them!)

I love how Komuke throws her head back when she does "bye bye"!

I try to limit sad news on my blog as I know many who follow me do so to escape from the stress of real life, or are not in the best place mentally to deal with sad news. If you would like to know more about a sad loss within the seal community please continue reading. If not, please just enjoy this cute photo and may it bring you joy. <3

Recently we were all saddened to learn that Ponsuke who was a lifetime resident of Tokkari Center unexpectedly died from unknown causes as posted on the center's official Twitter account. If you would like to help honor Ponsuke, please reblog this post with your favorite photos, videos, or memories of him in memorial. Next week I will reblog this post, and encourage you to scroll through the reblogs and see the photos (or videos!) other blogs share of him between now and then. Sending love to you all. It's healthy to grieve, and alright to cry no matter who you are. I hope once time has passed and you may move past your sorrow and remember Ponsuke for the joy he has always been, and the smiles he brought to our faces.

#2 - Bouncing seals!

Thanks to everyone who followed us right away 🌼

Currently, there’s over 20 seals at Seal Land.

Seals are like us.

They have different appearances, but they also have different personalities. 🙂 💭

Starting tomorrow, we want to introduce you to the seals one by one!

Look forward to it 🌱

It took me a while to figure out how to post videos, but I'm glad I did because who doesn't want to see bouncing cute seals?
