The Water isnt cooled, just normal temperature, and there is just Casey left now, and he practices singing during breeding season. Its awesome to hear :):)

Is Taronga likely to get more leopard seals? Does it depend if there any rescued ones that need a home?

Yup, only non-releasable animals would be allowed to be kept.

I would say that there is a good chance of Taronga acquiring more leopard seals (rescue animals only) long term, given the history, but it is in no way guaranteed.

I thought the water was cooled, anyway. Do you know when Sabine died? Thanks. :)
 
Nice photo! Leopard seals are my favorite pinnipeds, I'd jump at the chance to see one either at a zoo or in the wild.
 
Unfortunately,"Casey"passed away in 2013, so Taronga has no Leopard Seal at the moment, and I belive, there is no LS currently in a Zoo.
