New Zealand Fur Seal

Description:

Kekeno have long pale whiskers and a body covered with two layers of fur. Their coat is dark grey-brown on the back, and lighter below; when wet, kekeno look almost black. In some animals the longer upper hairs have white tips which give the animal a silvery appearance. (https://www.doc.govt.nz/nature/native-an... )
