Photograph taken by @paulnicklen while on assignment for @sea_legacy with @cristinamittermeier. This is what a baby harp seal looks like after drinking several pounds of some of the richest milk in the world. They usually looked like they were about to burst after a long nursing session. I think that this little girl needed a burp. They require the rich milk which nearly immediately turns into fat as they will take to the icy waters just two weeks after being born into this harsh yet necessary environment. #seals #harpseals #baby #beauty #love #nature #wildlife @elplanetaphoto #cute @natgeocreative @thephotosociety #climatechange #climatereality
