Finding Leopard Seal in Antarctica
Leopard Seals still occur in Antarctica, though specific park pins are still being curated. Use the Leopard Seal field guide for ID and biology, and the Antarctica expedition page for broader wildlife destinations.
Antarctica context: Emperor penguins on the ice, whales in the polar sea, and the last great wilderness at the bottom of the world.
When you are out looking, prioritise pack ice, ice floe edge, and coastal antarctic waters in Antarctica. That is where local sightings of this species are most often reported.
