Opened to the public in 1994, the Seal Interpretive Centre (S.I.C.) was created as a result of the efforts of the Willie Deraspe foundation, an infamous local captain. Located on Grande-Entree island next to the Club Vacances Les Iles, the S.I.C.'s main objective is to bring you closer to the fascinating world of seals |
Overview of differences between pinniped groups |
|
Pinnipeds, fin-footed marine mammals, are divided into two categories: earless seals (true seals) and eared seals (sea lions). Earless seals like the Northern elephant seal and harbor seal are believed to have descended from a line of terrestrial mammals similar to otters |
The mission of The Marine Mammal Center is to rescue and humanely treat ill, injured, or orphaned marine mammals including seals, sea lions, sea otters, dolphins and whales, and to advance knowledge about marine mammal health. Explore The Center's web site to find out how you can help support marine mammal conservation. |
