The Skull Island Fur Seal is a light brown arctocephaline eared seal from the coast of Skull Island. It measures 10-13 ft long (3-3.9 meters).
Facts[]
There are a few beaches in the more sheltered inlets between the rocky headlands. These are the transitory homes of Skull Island fur seals and sea turtles.
Rich in fat, they can be prey to sauropsid predators like Tartarusaurus and Nefundusaurus. Unguarded pups can be taken by Peracerdon.
The skulls of these pinnipeds can be used by Osteodomus for protective shells.

Trivia[]
- Based on geography. Assuming that Skull Island is in the South Pacific, than these fur seals would have originated as the Northern Fur Seal. Although at 3-3.9 meters, it is substantially larger.
