This spotted seal is natural monument No. 331 in South Korea. South Korea has put forth effort to save this seal.
Their natural habitat, and natural breeding ground, is the arctic. Climate change caused this creature difficulty breeding.
Hunting by humans, lack of food and other factors have added to their distress ..
I was inspired by this beautiful spotted seal and coral reef, which is also in danger of extinction,
to make this work to raise awareness of the endangered species... the spotted seal.
