Skua find the Antarctic beaches -- where they breed -- to be a natural habitat for them.
The skua bird is sometimes called a scavenger.
(Stercorarius maccormicki)
If you are talking about the Antarctic skua, then I think it's the sea lion. If not then I don't know.
Antarctic skua breed on Antarctica's beaches and otherwise live elsewhere. Skua chicks, like all bird chicks, are subject to being preyed upon by any raptor interested in feeding its young.
You may be thinking of a skua, or a seal.

Skua predators include larger seabirds such as gulls and predatory mammals like foxes. However, skua populations are primarily threatened by human activities such as habitat destruction and climate change.
Seabirds in that geography include Skua, Albatross, Tern, Penguin and others.
These birds pirate their food from others. They will follow and harass birds such as gannets, shearwaters and albatross to force them to disgorge their food which the skua then eats.Skuas are seabirds in the family Stercorariidae.
The South Polar skua of Antarctica is known as the world's most southerly bird. They generally lay two eggs which hatch in late December - late January after an incubation period of 24 to 34 days.
