This print captures a male Hooded Seal in all its majestic glory, proudly displaying its inflated proboscis or 'hood'. With this unique feature, it's like having a built-in airbag for protection and intimidation. Move over, Batman! This pinniped powerhouse knows how to strike fear into the hearts of any potential threats. Just imagine encountering this seal in the wild – one look at that impressive snout and you'd think twice before messing with him! But let's not forget about style. The FG-6805 is not only fierce but also fashion-forward. Who knew that noses could be so trendy?
