Yeah yeah yeah ribbon seal mood boardddd. I haven't seen a lot of seal things, let alone ribbon seals, so here you go. Ribbon seals primarily live in the Bering sea (between Russia and Alaska). Males tend to be dark with white stripes, where as females tend to be silver or light brown with white stripes.
I want to do more silly species and less recognised ones for all my therian friends who have a hard time finding content for themselves. What animals would you like to see me make a moodboard of?
No matter how funky your identity may be, you don't owe anyone an explanation for it. The only one who needs to understand it is you. And even then, you don't need to fully understand your own identity.
That being said I really want to try and explain my identity, simply just to see how I would put such a thing into words- or maybe even pictures. I think it could be fun!!! So later I'm going to try and do that, and if no one else understands what I mean, oh well. I think it will help me better understand what I mean.
As per the poll (that's not technically finished yet but oh well) leopard seals won! I personally am very discomforted by leopard seals, their mouths are just so strange.
Fun facts:
Leopard seals are the only seals that eat warm blooded prey, including other seals (justifying my leopard seal fear). They are also relatively aggressive compared to other seal species.
They can reach up to 3.5 meters/11.5 feet long, making them the same size as an average walrus.
Not previously mentioned in my other moodboard posts but none of the images are mine, they're all from Pinterest. Feel free to use any of my moodboards, as long as you don't claim you made them.
I want to be the silly little creature you find at the beach with eyes that clearly aren't human and skin speckled with seal spots and long flowing untamed hair
I want to walk out of the waves at low tide with bare feet coated in sand and a flowing night gown that is wet at the edges from brine
I want to take the hand of someone walking by into my hand that is sticky from dried salt dirtied with seaweed
And I want to drag them back to the depths where I came from
