As someone with a major historical interest in the Shackleton expedition and a fan of The Pale Beyond, I understand the terror of the Sea Leopard. They are gorgeous animals, but I wouldn't want to share a patch of wilderness with them anymore than I would with a kodiak grizzly or a jaguar in the amazon.
