The Antarctic fur seal also known as the Kerguelen fur seal grows up to 2 meters of height and about 200 kilograms of weight. These are the data for males, because females are much smaller and their weight does not exceed half the weight of males. It occurs only in waters around Antarctica. Unfortunately, when I was there I was not able to take more pictures of this mammal.
