A Seals Harem
Tha ml ia a polygamist. Tha lar
ger and stronger males hare harems,
ranging from 90 to 40 in number ac
cording to tha Igthing strength of
tha “King of the Harem.” One boll
has W«u known to hare 200 cows in
hia h train.
Naturally there is a large surplus
of matalesa males whose one object in
lifa is lo get a harsm of their own,
entailing continuous warfare and
blood shad in which often tha female
ia torn to piecar. or maimed in tha
struggle for ownership. To kill off
a goodly number of these disturbing
bachelors of the herd is therefore
necessary—net only for tha good of
the hard iiself but alio for the good
of the akin*, for naturally a mutilat
ed skiu or an old one has but eery
little market Talus.
