Description: The New Zealand seal, commonly known as the New Zealand fur seal or kekeno in Māori, is a marine mammal found along the coasts of New Zealand and southern Australia. These seals are known for their thick fur, pointed nose, and long whiskers. They are adept swimmers and often seen lounging on rocky shores or in coastal waters, feeding on fish and squid. The New Zealand fur seal plays a significant role in the region's marine ecosystem and is a protected species.
