Seal

Seals are charming and agile marine mammals, known for their sleek bodies and big, expressive eyes. These animals are perfectly adapted to life in the water, using their flippers to glide effortlessly through the ocean. On land, they are less graceful but equally endearing, often lounging in groups or playfully interacting with one another.

At the zoo, seals live in enclosures with large pools and rocky areas for resting, mimicking their natural habitats. Behind the scenes, their care includes a diet of fish like sardines, mackerel, and squid, as well as regular health checks to monitor their weight and teeth. Enrichment activities, such as floating toys and underwater puzzles, keep them physically and mentally active. Visitors are delighted by their antics during feeding sessions, where they often display their playful personalities and impressive swimming skills. Educational programs emphasize their role in marine ecosystems and the threats they face, such as pollution and overfishing.
