MASome encounters stay with you forever… 🦭
During our last Antarctic expedition, while out on a scientific mission, this leopard seal came to investigate us. Curious and completely at ease, it followed us for several minutes, giving Uli Kunz the chance to capture this extraordinary interaction.

SAAgile swimmers of the frigid Antarctic waters, the leopard seal is a formidable hunter. Like their namesake, they're fierce predators, aided by excellent eyesight and sense of smell.

MYSpotting a leopard seal taking his afternoon repose on the Antarctic pack ice. One of Antarctica’s most powerful predators, yet moments like this feel surprisingly peaceful. Leopard seals can grow over 3.5 m long and sit near the top of the food chain, but between hunts they often sprawl out on the ice like this, soaking up the rare Antarctic calm.

UN“Leopardonnez Moi, Madame” // What a blessing to meet this charmingly curious leopard seal during my most recent Antarctic work with @aylatownsend for @natgeo @lindbladexp. Silty conditions from a nearby glacier made for a spooky first pass by of this young female, but her endearingly sweet disposition meant that it was just love at first fright.

DIOn the beaches of South Georgia, the most dangerous place isn’t always the ocean.
It’s the edge.
The leopard seal is one of Antarctica’s top predators — a solitary hunter built for ambush. Unlike most seals that feed primarily on fish or krill, leopard seals actively hunt warm‑blooded prey like penguins. Their elongated skulls and interlocking canines are designed not just to grab, but to hold in chaotic surf conditions.
King penguins must enter the sea to feed. There’s no alternative. The water holds fish and squid — but it also holds risk. Leopard seals patrol these shoreline transition zones because they know prey must pass through them.
What makes this encounter so intense is proximity. The seal doesn’t chase across open water. It waits for the single vulnerable step — the moment flippers commit to the tide.
Leopard seals are capable of explosive bursts of acceleration from a near‑motionless position. On land, they appear slow. In water, they are hydrodynamic and fast. That shift between mediums is where survival balances.
Hard to watch? Maybe.
But on these shores, timing is everything.

Leopard seals are one of the most unforgettable animals you can see in Antarctica and also the one that reminds you very quickly that you are not at the top of the food chain.
What makes leopard seals so fascinating
• They are Antarctica’s top predator
• Can grow 10 to 12 feet long and weigh over 1,000 pounds
• Known for hunting penguins and other seals along the ice edge
• Extremely fast and powerful in the water
• Often curious around Zodiacs and shorelines, which makes sightings thrilling and humbling at the same time
Despite the name and reputation, seeing a leopard seal is not about fear. It is about respect. These animals are exactly where they belong, living completely on their own terms, and you are simply lucky enough to witness it.

EALeopard seals are solitary, highly aggressive Antarctic apex predators known for killing penguins, other seals, and occasionally attacking boats. Weighing up to 1,300 lbs, they are the third largest seals, using unique, haunting vocalizations and specialized, shark-like teeth to dominate their, with only orcas as natural predators.
Here are some lesser-known facts about leopard seals:
Unique Vocalizations: Males produce underwater, haunting calls that can last for hours during breeding season, sometimes even echoing through the hull of ships, as detailed in this Antarctic Wildlife Guide.
Terrifying Hunting Technique: They are known to thrash penguins back and forth within their jaws to skin them, and sometimes "play" with prey by letting it go and chasing it again.
Curious & Dangerous: While they can be playful or curious around humans, they are highly dangerous and have been known to bite or, in one documented case, fatally drag a marine biologist underwater.
Hybrid Feeders: In addition to hunting warm-blooded animals, they possess specially adapted molars that allow them to filter krill, similar to a crabeater seal.
Anti-Rubber Aggression: They have a strange affinity for attacking black rubber pontoons on inflatable boats, necessitating metal plating on some research vessels.
Extensive Wandering: Although they reside near the Antarctic ice pack, they are known to wander, with some individuals spotted as far north as the coast of South America, New Zealand, and Australia.
Leopard seals generally live solitary lives, only coming together for mating or to exploit a shared food source

DIUnder the ice, speed decides everything.
Leopard seals are among Antarctica’s most efficient predators. Sleek and powerful, they patrol beneath ice shelves where penguins must enter the water to feed.
The hunt is vertical.
The penguin’s only option is to dive deeper — but the seal has already aligned.
Unlike surface chaos, underwater attacks are clean and direct. The seal’s jaws close with precision. A short rotation secures the hold.
Antarctic water clarity makes every movement visible. The ice above glows turquoise, masking the violence below.
This is not spectacle.
It is hydrodynamics and instinct.
The surface may look frozen.
But below it, everything moves.
