Sea Lion v Northern 'True' Seal Flippers

Posted Image
Rather than bearing typical flippers like those of otariids (a), phocine seals have paw-like forelimbs with distinct digits and robust claws (b). (a,b) External forelimb anatomy for otariids (male Australian sea lion Neophoca cinerea) and phocines (female harbour seal Phoca vitulina—PV11). (c,d) Skeletal anatomy of the forelimb in otariids (long-nosed fur seal Arctocephalus forsteri—mirrored) and phocines (juvenile harbour seal). The radiograph image in (d) was taken under the Alaska SeaLife Center's NOAA/NMFS Stranding Agreement. (e) Harbour seal (PV11) showing webbing between spread digits during swimming. (f) Harbour seal (PV11) showing distinct and mobile digits with strong claws.

Unlike the flipper-like forelimbs of sea lions, northern ‘true’ seals have long robust claws, similar to those of a bear.
