We are accustomed to striped animals. Neither zebras nor tigers confuse us. But if you see a striped seal, you'll think it's been painted. 
Lionfish live in the northern seas: the Sea of Okhotsk, the Chukchi Sea, the Bering Sea, and also in the Tartary Strait. These are very large animals - they reach two meters in size and can weigh up to 100 kilograms. The main distinguishing feature of this type of seal is the white stripes on its fur. 
Lionfish, unlike other seals, cannot live in large groups. They live on ice floes in groups of 2-3 individuals. Lionfish hunt in the water, like other seals, catching fish and other sea inhabitants 
Striped seal pups are born white, and the stripes appear over time. Babies look like fluff balls. These amazing striped creatures live in nature for about 30 years. 
These seals do not have many enemies in nature. They are hunted by killer whales and bears. But the main enemy is man. Lionfish are exterminated for their valuable fur, fat and meat.
