Seals typically do not hunt penguins on land; they primarily hunt in the water where they are more agile and can utilize their swimming skills. However, some seal species, like leopard seals, may opportunistically prey on penguins when they are on ice floes or in shallow waters. This behavior is driven by the availability of food and the seals' need for energy, especially during breeding seasons when penguins are more accessible. Overall, seals are more adapted to hunting in aquatic environments rather than on land.
Yes, seals are predators of penguins and will hunt them for food. Penguins are a common prey for certain seal species, such as leopard seals and Antarctic fur seals.

Penguins are predators of fish, because they hunt and eat fish. Penguins may be eaten by seals or whales, so they are prey to seals and whales.
Penguins face predation from various animals, primarily in their aquatic environment. Seals, such as leopard seals and orca whales, are among the most significant predators that hunt penguins while they are swimming. On land, birds like skuas and giant petrels may prey on penguin chicks or eggs. Additionally, some species of foxes and feral cats can pose a threat to penguins in certain habitats.
The penguins preditors are the leapard seals, fur seals, sea lions, shark, killer whale, and on land their preditors are foxes, snakes, and sea gulls.
No. the leopard seals need to hunt for their food. their food is mostly penguins. most of the penguins escape and the leopard seals have no food
