Ross seals have several adaptations that help them thrive in their cold, Antarctic environment. Their thick layer of blubber provides insulation against the frigid temperatures, while their streamlined bodies and strong flippers enable efficient swimming. Additionally, Ross seals have specialized whiskers that help them detect prey in dark, deep waters, and their ability to dive to great depths allows them to access food sources that other seals may not reach.

Overall, their main threats come from a limited number of specialized hunters within their icy habitat.
