In-air evoked potential audiometry of grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) from the North and Baltic Seas. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In-air anthropogenic sound has the potential to affect grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) behaviour and interfere with acoustic communication. In this study, a new method was used to deliver acoustic signals to grey seals as part of an in-air hearing ...

Atlantic Grey Seal Milk Shows Continuous Changes in Key Metabolites and Indicators of Metabolic Transition in Pups From Birth to Weaning

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Mothers of the Atlantic grey seal, Halichoerus grypus, lactate for about 20 days, during which they do not feed and may have no access to water. Following weaning, they depart to sea leaving their pups unattended and unfed for up to another 40 days.

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N8) Virus in Gray Seals, Baltic Sea

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
We detected a highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N8) virus in lung samples of 2 gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) stranded on the Baltic coast of Poland in 2016 and 2017. This virus, clade 2.3.4.4 B, was closely related to avian H5N8 viruses circulating
