hi diana,

beautiful sketch...i wrote a report on the hunting of baby harp seals for the fur trade when I was in the fourth grade, that was in 1978, and I can't believe we haven't learned anything at all, in all this time...thanks for a very important post!

Now this seal is clearly too cute and adorable and I know they can bite a penguin's head off. :-)
