Dick paused almost mid-jump, having apparently turned to the wrong channel but also changed to the perfect one too. At least, perfect in the fact that he had just overheard an interesting thing from Jason, apparently forgetting that his comm was in fact on still.
Damian must have answered, because Jason snorted a laugh. “You can try getting him to leave, he’s taken over my bathtub and keeps eating all my food.”
Hold up, was- Dick had thought Jason was talking about a plush or something, but was he talking about a literal living animal seal??
“I’ll have you know I’m not going to make a poor little baby seal leave, and I’m not putting him in a zoo, brat.”
Oh Gotham, it was a real living animal seal. Dick about faced, rushing towards Jason’s safehouse. How did he get a seal? Why was it in his bathtub?? Why hadn’t he called the proper people for this sort of thing?! He had to get to the safehouse now to see this shit.
After about three to four weeks, Harp Seals lose their white fur. They get their name from the black patches on their backs that resemble harps. They’re also believed to be the most abundant species of Pinniped (seals, sea lions, walruses) in the Northern hemisphere!
Harp seal! They’re born fluffy white little beasts and develop their adult coloration over around a year. The fluffy coat insulates them against the cold until they’ve had a chance to grow a good layer of blubber, which is better for insulation in the water.
[ID: an illustration of an adult and a juvenile harp seal, swimming in a circular pattern around one another. The adult is on the bottom, facing right, with its mouth open and it’s tail up. The juvenile is above, facing to the left. They are on a blue background with simple wave patterns. End.]
