| | Seal Finger - An enigma and a challenge |
| | "Seal finger" is a finger infection associated with bites, cuts, or scrapes contaminated by the mouths, blood, or blubber of certain marine mammals. | | | Unanswered questions remain as to the epidemiology of "seal finger"; it is unclear which marine mammals can produce "seal finger", which parts of the mammal transmit illness, and whether sites other then thumbs and fingers can develop infection. | | | Noted in all areas of the world where salt water sealing is practiced, the incidence of "seal finger" in Alaska as elsewhere has declined markedly during the last 50 years. |

| | Marty Haulena, a seal specialist flown in from the Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, Calif., explained that anesthetizing marine mammals is unusually complicated because they tend to stop breathing and lower their body temperature — natural responses used under water. | | | After the surgery, the seal slept in a dry cage at the marine mammal lab at the Marine base. | | | The seal, under 24-hour watch at the Kane'ohe base, is expected to recover in about two weeks. |

| | The Fur Seal Act was enacted in 1966 (before the passage of the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972) specifically to protect the northern fur seal (Callorhinus ursinus) from the commercial sealing trade. | | | The sea lion is similar to the fur seal and the larger of the eared seals. | | | Fur seal s are distinguished from true seals by the presence of external ears and the ability to bring their rear flippers underneath their bodies to enable them to stand on all four limbs. |
