Seals foraging on schoolies?

Took my daughter for a walk out on Napatree today ... when we walked down to the water near the carousel, there was a small schoolie washed up on the beach, maybe 10-12 inches long with a bite out of its throat, maybe four or five inches in length ...

... figured it must have been victimized by a seal ... but surprised a seal wouldn't take the thing down in one bite, unless it was a little one, anything else likely do that?

Also saw a cormorant dining on all the baby flounder and other small fish in the area ...

"It was the blackest night! There was no moon in sight! (You know the stars ain't shinnin cause the sky's too tight) "
