                  | "Resting In The 
                  Splash Zone"

                  peacefully in the splash zone.

                  | Seal Facts: 
 The harbor seal is probably the most wide-ranging and abundant 
                  pinniped. Four subspecies inhabit northern Pacific and 
                  Atlantic coastlines. A fifth subspecies, Phoca vitulina 
                  mellonae, is a landlocked group of harbor seals living in 
                  freshwater Seal Lake in Quebec, Canada.
