Replica Guadalupe Fur Seal Skull
The Guadalupe fur seal is a rare marine mammal native to the Pacific Ocean, primarily around Guadalupe Island off the coast of Mexico. Known for their dense, silvery-brown to dark gray fur, these seals were heavily hunted in the 19th century, which led to near-extinction. Guadalupe fur seals are typically found along rocky shorelines and spend much of their time diving for fish and squid, displaying remarkable swimming and hunting abilities in their oceanic habitats.
