The article from the recent AAAS mtg reports that the warming arctic has led to intermixing of ring seals and gray seals which has resulted in the transfer of a parasite from ring seals to gray seals that is lethal to gray seals. Hopefully gray seals can pass it to each other……..sounds promising since 20% of the seals in the colony they were studying had already died.

Thoughts and prayers to their friends.
