   Note: Seals inhabit seacoasts, and are found principally in
         the higher latitudes of both hemispheres. There are
         numerous species, bearing such popular names as sea
         lion, sea leopard, sea bear, or ursine seal,
         fur seal, and sea elephant. The bearded seal
         (Erignathus barbatus), the hooded seal (Cystophora
         cristata), and the ringed seal (Phoca foetida), are
         northern species. See also Eared seal, Harp seal,
         Monk seal, and Fur seal, under Eared, Harp,
         Monk, and Fur. Seals are much hunted for their
         skins and fur, and also for their oil, which in some
         species is very abundant.
