The anatomy we hypothesize is in no way comparable to the conception of the anatomy that is criticized. the two blogs are talking apples and oranges.

Furthermore some fossils have been interpreted as showing an inclination to go into the water for feeding also.

The total length is ordinarily given as about five to ten feet long as an adult (average 6-8 feet long), comparable to some medium-large seals, and with the males substantially larger than the females. They are seen singly, in pairs, in small groups or large groups; but more recently most of the sightings have been of single individuals only.<br /><br />Best Wishes, Dale DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
