 Ko Wai Au?

I roam the seas looking for food to eat like small fish, I have large eyes to see under water really well. I have predators like killer whales, polar bears and sharks. When I am young I am a target for them.

I use water for drinking it and eating the fish that live in it.  most of my life is under water. I am white when I am young but as I grow older I turn grey. For food, I hunt for fish in a big group called a herd. I am made to live in the cold I have a fur coat and a thick layer of fat. Two names I have what am I?

I am a harp seal my other name is Saddleback because I have got a saddle shape on my back. If you want to find me look at the Arctic. Sadly most of us are hunted at a young age. In the wild, we can live up to twenty years! we are very noisy too (like all seals) my Scientific name is Pagophilus groenlandicus
