About Antarctic Fur Seal
Fur seals live in a difficult and cold environment. In order to survive, they have adapted by evolving a thick layer of underfur covered by a layer of short rough fur on the top.
Their underfur is waterproof and keeps them warm. These seals were once hunted for their fur they are now protected and have made a spectacular recovery.
