The South Georgia watch.
Follow published seal observations from South Georgia, or send your own sighting to the Seal Watch team.
A record of encounters.
South Georgia and its nearby islands, including the Willis Islands, Bird Island and Cooper Island. The South Sandwich Islands and Antarctica are outside this community.
We bring together published reports so people can follow the story over time. A report is an observation, not a count of a different seal, and an attributed name is not independent identity verification.
Each regional archive contains its own reports. Visitor submissions are reviewed privately; publication is a separate editorial step. New records appear here as they are published.
