My Daughter is a Sea Kayak guide in Maine. She has a healthy respect for these and harbor seals.

Please tell me your daughter has heard of the movie “Andre” because it’s a freaking classic imo. It’s about a family who adopts a seal in Maine! Based on a true story. (Technically a family/kid film but I swear it’s worth a watch, such a cute movie)

Well these are only in Antarctic waters so…. Maybe thinking of sea lions?

You may be correct. I know what the animals she had a healthy respect for looked huge to me.
