FUR SEAL OR SEA BEAR. The most valuable of the Seals is that which is. on account of its beautiful coat, called the Fur Seal, and is also known 



as the Sea Bear. This is the species of Seal which has been the subject of so much international controversy. Its principal home is now on the Pribyloff Islands 

 of the northern Pacific, where it seeks the most inaccessible rocks for its lair. These Seals live in large herds. The picture illustrates a group of them making 

 slow progress over the rocks, while a mother Seal aids her young one to advance by carrying it in her mouth. (Olaria ursina.)
