Animals hear high pitched sounds just because of the way their ears are set up. The "hairs" are bigger than the humans and more sensitive. They react when the Frequency is high like a special whistle that a dog can hear.

How do true seals hear?

True seals have ears, just not external ears. Their ears are simple holes on the sides of their heads, but they have the same general internal ear structures as any other mammal. Sound carries very well in water, so true seals can hear perfectly well when submerged. Note that other marine mammals - whales, dolphins, manatees and such - also lack external ears. In air, they can still hear, but perhaps not as well as some other mammals.
