W.A.L.T-We are learning to summarize the main points of paragraphs


Alls seals that live at the Antarctic are so fast in the sea but they are clumsy in the land. Seals born their pups on ice at the Antarctic.They haul themselves up to the ice so they can born to their pups.


Seals are mammals that live in oceans all over the world. All of the seals at the Antarctic are non-eared.The seals have lots of blubber to keep them warm.

Seals have thick,short hair on their streamlined body, to keep them warm.They have flippers to help them be superb swimmers. Most of the time seals are in the sea. 


In Antarctica there is 30 million Crabeater seals.They eat krill instead of crabs.

At the Antarctic there is Leopard seals. Did you know that the Leopard seals hunt penguins under water. Penguins at the Antarctic are not afraid of them when they are on ice because Leopard seals have no legs and they are not fast.

Did you know that the Weddell seals spend the whole time in winter at the antarctica. The other seals go to warm parts of the southern ocean.
