Wow, I actually had a request, from a special reader from Oregon, for pictures of the bloody placentae of Cape Fur Seals. Who am I to deny such curiosity for the natural world?
This placenta looks pretty fresh. Like I said, if you want to walk these parts, what your step!
This placenta looks a couple of days old.
Cape Fur Seal Factoid of the Day: The gestation period for Cape Fur Seals is 51 weeks (including a 3 month delay in implantation!!) - IUCN 2008 Red List.
