Down in Antarctica, Ukrainian scientists and polar explorers have named this year's firstborn Weddell seal pup!
Meet "SeaBaby Svitozarovych". The name is in honor of Ukraine's marine drone. It was born on Winter Island near the Vernadskyi Research Base. Biologist Svitozar Davydenko was the first to find it and had the honor of naming it out of hundreds of suggestions.
"SeaBaby is already 10 days old. He is actively growing and will soon begin to get acquainted with the ocean. Weddell seals start living independently and feeding in the water after the weaning period is over, approximately seven weeks after birth." (September 26, 2024)

A sweet gorgeous angel from Antarctica (a Weddell seal) blessed us with its presence (took a nap on the beach) today. Seeing one of these guys is a very rare occurrence in Aotearoa, and felt very special. I only have two NZ pinnipeds left to spot now!

Animal of the Day!
Weddell Seal (Leptonychotes weddellii)
(Photo from World Atlas)
Conservation Status- Least Concern
Habitat- Southern Ocean
Size (Weight/Length)- 450 kg; 3 m
Diet- Squid; Fish; Shrimp
Cool Facts- The Weddell seal is one of the largest seal species, packing on 5 centimeters of blubber all over their body accounting for almost a third of their body weight. Well, when you live in the coldest place in the world that fat comes in handy. Resting on ice flows in the summer, Weddell seals raise their pups and feast on plentiful fish thanks to plankton blooms. In the winter, the air chill is -60 Celsius with winds over 300 kilometers per hour. Weddell seals stay in the considerably warmer water, a crisp -2 degrees Celsius. Using their teeth, they grind back breathing holes to prevent them from icing over and use their powerful snout to break through thinner ice. Luckily, after the banning of commercial sealing in the 1980s, Weddell seal populations have bounced back to a stable level.
Rating- 11/10 (They change their vocalization to try and talk to humans.)
