The fat harbor seal was a favortie theme of of northern bowl carvers, probably because it was an important source of oil, and because its meat and blubber were important at feasts. Perched on its round belly on a reef just above the tide, head and hind flippers arched upward, the harbor seal is a familiar sight to coast travellers. (Holm, Spirit and Ancestor, 1987)
