Fur Seal Cove

Habitat
Our South American fur seals live in a specially designed cove where they can bask on a rock or dive and swim, exploring their underwater world and playing with some of the toys we've created to keep them active and to make their environment as natural as possible. Living Coasts currently has 3 fur seals: Grace, a mature female; Oscar, the seal pup; and Tunanta, a young female seal who likes to swim and swim. Located just next door is the Macaroni penguin pool.

Fur seals move extremely fast and have a streamlined shape, flipper-like limbs, fur, and blubber which makes them most at home in the sea.
