Seals fall underneath the category of animals known as “pinnipeds”. They share this category with Sea Lions, but are two completely different animals!
There are 33 different species of seals that inhabit waters and coastal environments all around the world. The infamous Leopard Seal haunts the waters of Antarctica, while Gray Seals and Harbor Seals can be found in coastal regions in the Northeast America. Seals also come in all shapes and sizes. Depending on the species, they can be anywhere from 4 feet in length to 16 feet (the largest, Elephant Seal).
There are 6 main categories that seals fall into that we will explore. They are the crabeater, fur, leopard, ross, southern elephant, and weddell. Only few species of seals can move smoothly from sea to land, and move around competently. Only about 20% of their lives are spent on land.
The most well known species of seals are……
The Leopard Seal
Harp Seal
Harbor Seal
Gray Seal
Northern Elephant Seal
Southern Elephant Seal
Weddel Seal
Hawaiian Monk Seal
Mediterranean Monk Seal
Galapagos Fur Seal
Antarctic Fur Seal
Northern Fur Seal
- Read the Roman-Raphaelson book on writing. Read it three times.
- Write the way you talk. Naturally.
- Use short words, short sentences and short paragraphs.
- Never use jargon words like reconceptualize, demassification, attitudinally, judgmentally. They are hallmarks of a pretentious ass.
- Never write more than two pages on any subject.
- Check your quotations.
- Never send a letter or a memo on the day you write it. Read it aloud the next morning — and then edit it.
- If it is something important, get a colleague to improve it.
- Before you send your letter or your memo, make sure it is crystal clear what you want the recipient to do.
- If you want ACTION, don’t write. Go and tell the guy what you want.
