Ringed seal pup on Väinameri (Straits Sea) ice
Ringed seal Viigerhüljes or viiger Pusa hispida
We were lucky to see a solitary ringed seal last autumn in the grey seal monitoring camera when it spent some time in the grey seal haulout. Sometimes they move together.
We see the white rump patches only in winter, in summer these hairs are brown. Photo: Tarmo Mikussaar
