The answer is predation!
A Leopard Seals percentage of diet is: Krill (47%), Other Seals (31%), young Crabeater Seals and penguins (11%), and fish and cephalopods (11%)
Yes! they prey on young Antarctic Fur seals, Crabeater Seals, Ross Seals And Weddell Seals
Penguins (emperor and adelie) seals (leopard seals; antarctic fur seals; crabeater seals; ross seals and weddell seals) whales(orcas(killer whales))
leopard seal, crabeater seal, elephant seal - live in the Antartica.
The enemy is most of the time the leopard seal. They are found to eat 80% of the crab-eater seal pups.
Crabeater seals are called crabeater seals because of the way their teeth look.
because the crabeater seals don't eat as muchI think :)
No because it migrates!
The Weddell seal and the Leopard seal are common, although the list also includes Antarctic Fur seals, Crabeater seals and Ross Seals. These are the most common seals on earth. Because there are no land predators, their numbers are large.
Diatoms are a type of single celled plankton. There are no seals that eat plankton. Seals eat fish, with the exception of a few types, such as the Crabeater, which eats krill, and the leopard seal, which eats penguins and seal pups.
No animals live in Antarctica, however, Penguins, Whales, Leopard Seals, Crabeater Seals, Weddell Seals, Orcas (Killer Whales), and a few insects make their home or breed in the Southern Ocean which surrounds the continent.
