"It is, of course, important to maintain some academic separation from your study subject as a scientist," says wildlife biologist and National Geographic grantee, Douglas Krause, although it doesn't take him long to concede: "But there's no getting around the fact that Antarctic fur seals are ridiculously cute. It's exactly the same feeling that you would get walking down the street if an adorable Labrador puppy walked by—you can't help yourself."
Krause is in Cape Shirreff, Antarctica, working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations (NOAA) Fisheries' Antarctic Marine Living Resources Program (AMLR). The NOAA team, led by wildlife biologist Mike Goebel, is dedicated to monitoring the health of fur seals, other Antarctic species, and the Cape Shirreff ecosystem as a whole. The data they collect can be used to help inform management of commercial fishing for sustainable resource exploitation in Antarctica.
One way Krause's team tracks the health of fur seal pups is by weighing one hundred pups every fifteen days throughout the Summer. The measurements reveal whether or not the pups have enough food to eat, Krause explains: "If there were fewer krill for their mothers to forage for offshore, we might see a slower growth rate in the pups and we could pass that information on to the management bodies to essentially set regulations."
While Krause is happy to conduct research that helps the pups thrive and finds them undeniably adorable, he has no illusions about the fact that the pups are wild animals that need to be respected. "Our team has a lot of experience working with these animals in particular, and we have a lot of experience monitoring wild animals and wild animal behavior. We're tracking every animal on the beach and we're ready to react appropriately." says Krause. Sometimes that reaction is as simple as letting fur seal pups chew on the scientists' rubber boots—almost like teething puppies—so the animals have a quick and harmless outlet for their energy while the scientists work with them.
"At the end of the day, we're down here studying animal behavior, so we're really motivated at every stage along the way to minimize our impact on the animals. Both because it helps the data that we collect be more accurate, and also because we have a moral responsibility to not harm these animals." Krause explains. "From the time that we actually grab a pup, weigh it and then release it, in an ideal situation that is at most a couple of minutes, and often it's quicker than that."
The pups can't count on ultimately harmless encounters from some of the other species they encounter, though. Along with National Geographic, the NOAA team placed Crittercams on leopard seals and the footage revealed a grisly fate for many fur seal pups and captured behavior never before seen on video.

In the twenty years following the United States' acquisition of the Alaska territory (1867), revenues from the Pribilof Island fur seal harvest paid off the 7.2 million dollar purchase price. This documentary uncovers this little-known piece of American history told through the story of Henry Wood Elliott, an artist and naturalist who produced some of the earliest images of the Pribilof fur seal harvest, wrote the first detailed account of the northern fur seal's life history, and who many regard as the man who saved the northern fur seal from extinction.

This Fur seal is one of the few cases with Leucism. It is a condition in animals characterized by reduced pigmentation. It is caused by a reduction in all types of skin pigment, not just melanin. This pup was filmed on the beach of Fortuna Bay in South Gerogia in january 2015.

На видео представлены три случая, зафиксированных наблюдателями, когда морской котик совокуплялся с королевским пингвином.
Fur seals have been caught engaging in an extreme form of sexual behaviour. Specifically, trying to have sex with penguins.
Sexual coercion is the use of force to achieve mating, while reproductive interference encompasses many forms of interspecific interactions during mating. Three new occurrences of the sexual coercion of king penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) by Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) on sub-Antarctic Marion Island have been registered. These recurrent observations follow a common pattern where the seal chases, captures and mounts the penguin, followed by copulation attempts. These observations are similar to a previously published observation from the same island.
King penguin tries to resist sexual coercion by Antarctic fur seal.
Male and female penguins mate via an opening called a cloaca, and the seals are thought to have actually penetrated the penguins in some of the acts, which were caught on film by Haddad.
In three of the four recorded incidents the seal let the penguin go. But on one of the more recent occasions, the seal killed and ate the penguin after trying to mate with it.
Морские котики все чаще насилуют пингвинов на острове Марион у побережья Антарктиды, выяснили ученые. О причинах и особенностях необычного сексуального поведения ластоногих рассказывается в журнале Polar Biology, а коротко о нем сообщает BBC Earth.
Впервые южноафриканские ученые заметили, как морской котик пытается совокупиться с королевским пингвином, еще в 2006 году. Тогда этот акт посчитали следствием неопытности молодой, сексуально озабоченной особи (сторонники другой гипотезы утверждали, что игра животного с птицей случайно вылилась в половой акт).
Однако в следующие два года исследователи зафиксировали в разных местах острова еще три подобных случая. Пол птицы ученые определить не смогли. Все происшествия развивались по одинаковой схеме: морской котик догонял, хватал и оседлывал пингвина. Потом животное предпринимало несколько попыток копуляции (каждый половой акт занимал в среднем пять минут), отдыхая в промежутках. Пингвины совокупляются с помощью клоаки (расширенной конечной части задней кишки) — именно туда в одном из случаев морскому котику удалось ввести свой половой член. Обычно животные отпускали пингвинов на свободу, но в недавнем случае морской котик убил и съел свою жертву.
Происходящее на острове Марион — единственный известный ученым случай половых контактов между животными различных классов (млекопитающими и птицами). Такое поведение становится все более распространенным на острове — дело в том, что морские котики способны легко обучаться новым видам деятельности, и, наблюдая за насилием над пингвинами, начинают сами его практиковать.
Что касается причин этого явления, то молодые морские котики, неспособные пока завоевать себе гарем из самок, могут таким образом снимать сексуальное напряжение. «Или на птицах легче практиковать навыки совокупления. В общем, пока мы затрудняемся с ответом», — заявил автор статьи Нико де Брюйн

Scientists Capture Unique Footage Of Seals Attempting To Mate With Penguins

ASTONISHING footage reveals an enormous seal forcing itself onto a king penguin. Four separate observations were made of individual Antarctic fur seals sexually assaulting adult king penguins as they tried to resist. The rare video was captured on Marion Island, in the sub-Antarctic Indian Ocean, from 2006 to 2012 and is the only documentation of the strange occurrence. South African scientists Ryan Reisinger, William A. Haddad, Tristan Scott, Marthán Bester and Nico de Bruyn, from the South African National Antarctic Programme, University of Pretoria, came across the unusual behaviour by chance as they conducted research on seals and killer whales. They say the reason behind the seals’ actions cannot be concluded due to a lack of evidence. However learned behaviour or the shortage of female mates due to population growth in the area may lead the seals to display sexual aggression towards the birds.

Fur seals are any of nine species of pinnipeds in the Otariidae family. One species, the northern fur seal (Callorhinus ursinus) inhabits the North Pacific, while seven species in the Arctocephalus genus are found primarily in the Southern Hemisphere. They are much more closely related to sea lions than true seals, and share with them external ears (pinnae), relatively long and muscular foreflippers, and the ability to walk on all fours. They are marked by their dense underfur, which made them a long-time object of commercial hunting.
Until recently, fur seals were all grouped under a single subfamily of Pinnipedia, called Arctocephalinae, to contrast them with Otariinae – the sea lions – based on the most prominent common feature, namely the coat of dense underfur intermixed with guard hairs. Recent genetic evidence, however, suggests Callorhinus is more closely related to some sea lion species, and the fur seal/sea lion subfamily distinction has been eliminated from many taxonomies. Nonetheless, all fur seals have certain features in common: the fur, generally smaller sizes, farther and longer foraging trips, smaller and more abundant prey items and greater sexual dimorphism. For these reasons, the distinction remains useful.

Fur is a synonym for hair, used more in reference to non-human animals, usually mammals; particularly those with extensive body hair coverage. The term is sometimes used to refer to the body hair of an animal as a complete coat, also known as the "pelage". Fur is also used to refer to animal pelts which have been processed into leather with the hair still attached. The words fur or furry are also used, more casually, to refer to hair-like growths or formations; particularly when the subject being referred to exhibits a dense coat of fine, soft "hairs".
Animal fur, if layered, rather than grown as a single coat, may consist of short ground hair, long guard hair, and, in some cases, medium awn hair. Mammals with reduced amounts of fur are often called "naked", as in The Naked Ape, naked mole rat, and naked dogs.
An animal with commercially valuable fur is known within the fur industry as a furbearer. The use of fur as clothing and/or decoration is considered controversial by some people: most animal rights advocates object to the trapping and killing of wildlife, and to the confinement and killing of animals on fur farms.

Fur Seals spend many hours each day grooming. This activity is necessary to trap air bubbles within their densely packed fur, producing an insulating layer, thus preventing loss of body heat. The northern fur seal pup shown here is undergoing rehabilitation at our facility. Once attaining a healthy body weight, she will be released into her natural habitat - the Pacific.

Seal Pups: Ferociously Cute and Worth Protecting
"It is, of course, important to maintain some academic separation from your study subject as a scientist," says wildlife biologist and National Geographic grantee, Douglas Krause, although it doesn't take him long to concede: "But there's no getting around the fact that Antarctic fur seals are ridiculously cute. It's exactly the same feeling that you would get walking down the street if an adorable Labrador puppy walked by—you can't help yourself." Krause is in Cape Shirreff, Antarctica, working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations (NOAA) Fisheries' Antarctic Marine Living Resources Program (AMLR). The NOAA team, led by wildlife biologist Mike Goebel, is dedicated to monitoring the health of fur seals, other Antarctic species, and the Cape Shirreff ecosystem as a whol... -

Henry Wood Elliott: Defender of the Fur Seal
In the twenty years following the United States' acquisition of the Alaska territory (1867), revenues from the Pribilof Island fur seal harvest paid off the 7.2 million dollar purchase price. This documentary uncovers this little-known piece of American history told through the story of Henry Wood Elliott, an artist and naturalist who produced some of the earliest images of the Pribilof fur seal harvest, wrote the first detailed account of the northern fur seal's life history, and who many regard as the man who saved the northern fur seal from extinction. This award-winning film was produced for NOAA and by Paul Hillman as his MFA thesis film in Science and Natural History Filmmkaing at Montana State University - Bozeman.

Fur Seal Pup - swimming and grooming
Fur Seals spend many hours each day grooming. This activity is necessary to trap air bubbles within their densely packed fur, producing an insulating layer, thus preventing loss of body heat. The northern fur seal pup shown here is undergoing rehabilitation at our facility. Once attaining a healthy body weight, she will be released into her natural habitat - the Pacific. -

Wildlife Seals Documentary HD 1080p National Data Center
Pinnipeds (/ˈpɪnəˌpɛdz/), (from Latin pinna fin and pes, pedis foot[2]) colloquially known as seals,[a] are a widely distributed and diverse clade of fin-footed, semiaquatic marine mammals. They comprise the extant families Odobenidae (whose only living member is the walrus), Otariidae (the eared seals: sea lions and fur seals), and Phocidae (the earless, or true seals). There are 33 extant species of pinnipeds, and more than 50 extinct species have been described from fossils. While seals were historically thought to have descended from two ancestral lines, molecular evidence supports them as a monophyletic lineage (descended from one ancestral line). Pinnipeds belong to the order Carnivora and their closest living relatives are bears and musteloids (weasels, raccoons and skunks), having ... -

"It is, of course, important to maintain some academic separation from your study subject as a scientist," says wildlife biologist and National Geographic grantee, Douglas Krause, although it doesn't take him long to concede: "But there's no getting around the fact that Antarctic fur seals are ridiculously cute. It's exactly the same feeling that you would get walking down the street if an adorable Labrador puppy walked by—you can't help yourself."
Krause is in Cape Shirreff, Antarctica, working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations (NOAA) Fisheries' Antarctic Marine Living Resources Program (AMLR). The NOAA team, led by wildlife biologist Mike Goebel, is dedicated to monitoring the health of fur seals, other Antarctic species, and the Cape Shirreff ecosystem as a whole. The data they collect can be used to help inform management of commercial fishing for sustainable resource exploitation in Antarctica.
One way Krause's team tracks the health of fur seal pups is by weighing one hundred pups every fifteen days throughout the Summer. The measurements reveal whether or not the pups have enough food to eat, Krause explains: "If there were fewer krill for their mothers to forage for offshore, we might see a slower growth rate in the pups and we could pass that information on to the management bodies to essentially set regulations."
While Krause is happy to conduct research that helps the pups thrive and finds them undeniably adorable, he has no illusions about the fact that the pups are wild animals that need to be respected. "Our team has a lot of experience working with these animals in particular, and we have a lot of experience monitoring wild animals and wild animal behavior. We're tracking every animal on the beach and we're ready to react appropriately." says Krause. Sometimes that reaction is as simple as letting fur seal pups chew on the scientists' rubber boots—almost like teething puppies—so the animals have a quick and harmless outlet for their energy while the scientists work with them.
"At the end of the day, we're down here studying animal behavior, so we're really motivated at every stage along the way to minimize our impact on the animals. Both because it helps the data that we collect be more accurate, and also because we have a moral responsibility to not harm these animals." Krause explains. "From the time that we actually grab a pup, weigh it and then release it, in an ideal situation that is at most a couple of minutes, and often it's quicker than that."
The pups can't count on ultimately harmless encounters from some of the other species they encounter, though. Along with National Geographic, the NOAA team placed Crittercams on leopard seals and the footage revealed a grisly fate for many fur seal pups and captured behavior never before seen on video.

На видео представлены три случая, зафиксированных наблюдателями, когда морской котик совокуплялся с королевским пингвином.
Fur seals have been caught engaging in an extreme form of sexual behaviour. Specifically, trying to have sex with penguins.
Sexual coercion is the use of force to achieve mating, while reproductive interference encompasses many forms of interspecific interactions during mating. Three new occurrences of the sexual coercion of king penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) by Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) on sub-Antarctic Marion Island have been registered. These recurrent observations follow a common pattern where the seal chases, captures and mounts the penguin, followed by copulation attempts. These observations are similar to a previously published observation from the same island.
King penguin tries to resist sexual coercion by Antarctic fur seal.
Male and female penguins mate via an opening called a cloaca, and the seals are thought to have actually penetrated the penguins in some of the acts, which were caught on film by Haddad.
In three of the four recorded incidents the seal let the penguin go. But on one of the more recent occasions, the seal killed and ate the penguin after trying to mate with it.
Морские котики все чаще насилуют пингвинов на острове Марион у побережья Антарктиды, выяснили ученые. О причинах и особенностях необычного сексуального поведения ластоногих рассказывается в журнале Polar Biology, а коротко о нем сообщает BBC Earth.
Впервые южноафриканские ученые заметили, как морской котик пытается совокупиться с королевским пингвином, еще в 2006 году. Тогда этот акт посчитали следствием неопытности молодой, сексуально озабоченной особи (сторонники другой гипотезы утверждали, что игра животного с птицей случайно вылилась в половой акт).
Однако в следующие два года исследователи зафиксировали в разных местах острова еще три подобных случая. Пол птицы ученые определить не смогли. Все происшествия развивались по одинаковой схеме: морской котик догонял, хватал и оседлывал пингвина. Потом животное предпринимало несколько попыток копуляции (каждый половой акт занимал в среднем пять минут), отдыхая в промежутках. Пингвины совокупляются с помощью клоаки (расширенной конечной части задней кишки) — именно туда в одном из случаев морскому котику удалось ввести свой половой член. Обычно животные отпускали пингвинов на свободу, но в недавнем случае морской котик убил и съел свою жертву.
Происходящее на острове Марион — единственный известный ученым случай половых контактов между животными различных классов (млекопитающими и птицами). Такое поведение становится все более распространенным на острове — дело в том, что морские котики способны легко обучаться новым видам деятельности, и, наблюдая за насилием над пингвинами, начинают сами его практиковать.
Что касается причин этого явления, то молодые морские котики, неспособные пока завоевать себе гарем из самок, могут таким образом снимать сексуальное напряжение. «Или на птицах легче практиковать навыки совокупления. В общем, пока мы затрудняемся с ответом», — заявил автор статьи Нико де Брюйн

In three of the four recorded incidents the seal let the penguin go. But on one of the more recent occasions, the seal killed and ate the penguin after trying to mate with it.
Морские котики все чаще насилуют пингвинов на острове Марион у побережья Антарктиды, выяснили ученые. О причинах и особенностях необычного сексуального поведения ластоногих рассказывается в журнале Polar Biology, а коротко о нем сообщает BBC Earth.
Впервые южноафриканские ученые заметили, как морской котик пытается совокупиться с королевским пингвином, еще в 2006 году. Тогда этот акт посчитали следствием неопытности молодой, сексуально озабоченной особи (сторонники другой гипотезы утверждали, что игра животного с птицей случайно вылилась в половой акт).
Однако в следующие два года исследователи зафиксировали в разных местах острова еще три подобных случая. Пол птицы ученые определить не смогли. Все происшествия развивались по одинаковой схеме: морской котик догонял, хватал и оседлывал пингвина. Потом животное предпринимало несколько попыток копуляции (каждый половой акт занимал в среднем пять минут), отдыхая в промежутках. Пингвины совокупляются с помощью клоаки (расширенной конечной части задней кишки) — именно туда в одном из случаев морскому котику удалось ввести свой половой член. Обычно животные отпускали пингвинов на свободу, но в недавнем случае морской котик убил и съел свою жертву.
Происходящее на острове Марион — единственный известный ученым случай половых контактов между животными различных классов (млекопитающими и птицами). Такое поведение становится все более распространенным на острове — дело в том, что морские котики способны легко обучаться новым видам деятельности, и, наблюдая за насилием над пингвинами, начинают сами его практиковать.
Что касается причин этого явления, то молодые морские котики, неспособные пока завоевать себе гарем из самок, могут таким образом снимать сексуальное напряжение. «Или на птицах легче практиковать навыки совокупления. В общем, пока мы затрудняемся с ответом», — заявил автор статьи Нико де Брюйн

ASTONISHING footage reveals an enormous seal forcing itself onto a king penguin. Four separate observations were made of individual Antarctic fur seals sexually assaulting adult king penguins as they tried to resist. The rare video was captured on Marion Island, in the sub-Antarctic Indian Ocean, from 2006 to 2012 and is the only documentation of the strange occurrence. South African scientists Ryan Reisinger, William A. Haddad, Tristan Scott, Marthán Bester and Nico de Bruyn, from the South African National Antarctic Programme, University of Pretoria, came across the unusual behaviour by chance as they conducted research on seals and killer whales. They say the reason behind the seals’ actions cannot be concluded due to a lack of evidence. However learned behaviour or the shortage of female mates due to population growth in the area may lead the seals to display sexual aggression towards the birds.

Pinnipeds (/ˈpɪnəˌpɛdz/), (from Latin pinna fin and pes, pedis foot[2]) colloquially known as seals,[a] are a widely distributed and diverse clade of fin-footed, semiaquatic marine mammals. They comprise the extant families Odobenidae (whose only living member is the walrus), Otariidae (the eared seals: sea lions and fur seals), and Phocidae (the earless, or true seals). There are 33 extant species of pinnipeds, and more than 50 extinct species have been described from fossils. While seals were historically thought to have descended from two ancestral lines, molecular evidence supports them as a monophyletic lineage (descended from one ancestral line). Pinnipeds belong to the order Carnivora and their closest living relatives are bears and musteloids (weasels, raccoons and skunks), having diverged about 50 million years ago.
