Photo by @jasperdoest | At the end of autumn, most female grey seals haul themselves ashore to give birth. When pups are born, the mothers spin around to sniff them and get to know their smell—to be able to find their offspring within the colony. Female grey seals are dedicated parents, spending several weeks feeding their pups and losing up to 65kg in the process. Every day the pups drink two and a half liters of milk that is so rich that the seal pups can grow by as much as 30kg in two weeks. After a month or so, females leave their pups and head back out to sea, where they feed and mate again to give birth the next year. The pups can spend up to two weeks alone on the beach as they evolve a waterproof fur, after which they take the plunge into the sea and learn to fish for themselves.
