Brown Fur Seals on the South African Coastline
Brown fur seals, also known as Cape fur seals, spend much of their lives swimming in the ocean along the coast of Southern Africa. These marine mammals regularly haul out onto granite rocks and jagged shoreline ledges to rest, warm up, and socialize in large colonies.
Ocean Adaptations and Coastal Behavior
These seals have thick layers of blubber beneath their skin to stay warm in cool Atlantic ocean currents. Unlike true seals, fur seals possess external ear flaps and large, muscular flippers that allow them to walk upright across steep rocks on land.
Colors of the Brown Fur Seal
- Fur coat: dark brown to gray when wet, fading to light brown when dry
- Chest and belly: pale tan or yellowish brown
- Eyes and nose: dark brown or black
- Surrounding rocks: granite gray, charcoal, or dark red
