Introduction
Seals are a big part of several cultures throughout the world. In ancient
times in Greece, they were on early coins. The Celts (people who
settled in Ireland and Britain) believed that there were creatures called
selkies that were like mermaids, except they hid their human sides
under a seal skin.
The Inuit people, among other people, have depended on seals for a
long time, and some of their legends have seals in them, including the
goddess Sedna.She has a half-seal body, appearing rather like a
mermaid.
Seals are spread throughout many regions of the world; they have
provided humans with food, and kept other species from getting too
large in numbers. They are fascinating creatures that split their time
between the land and the sea.
