Description
Ribbon seal male, Histriophoca fasciata, on sea ice of the Bering Sea, April 2007. The exceptionally strong color pattern probably serves as disruptive coloration when the seal is in the water. This is the least known seal of the arctic-subarctic, which breeds on sea ice and is subject to diminishing sea ice due to global climate change
