EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing illustration, titled "Various Species of Seals," showcases two distinct species of seals: the Common Seal on the left and the Fetid Seal, also known as the Stinkhorn Seal or the Stellar Seal, on the bottom right. This historical print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, dates back to circa 1880. The Common Seal, depicted on the left, is one of the most widely distributed pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses) in the Northern Hemisphere. They are characterized by their rounded ears, short snout, and distinctive spotted fur. Common Seals are known for their agility on land and in water, making them versatile hunters in their aquatic environment. On the bottom right, the Fetid Seal, or Stinkhorn Seal, is illustrated. This species, native to the North Pacific Ocean, is known for its distinctive odor, which is believed to help mask the scent of its prey. The Fetid Seal has a more elongated snout and larger ears compared to the Common Seal. Historically, the Fetid Seal was hunted for its blubber and fur, which were used for various purposes, including oil production and clothing. This illustration offers a glimpse into the natural history of these fascinating marine mammals, providing a window into the past and showcasing the unique characteristics of each species. The intricate details and accurate representation of the seals make this print a valuable addition to any collection focused on marine life or natural history.
