Nature Wants to Eat You
Oh look, a seal! Seals are cuddly! It’s a cuddly flaying! Leopard seals are not cuddly. They’re the lions of the Antarctic. Go over to Paul Nicklen’s gallery for some incredible shots (and some disturbing ones that show what this mouth does to a penguin). Or watch this great video of a leopard seal failing to teach Paul how to hunt.
