Seals StranEled by Lobster Pot Hoops.

Seals are to fish and Holsters what
hawks arc to mice and snakes. Some
times seals, young ones especially. get
into trouble because Of their amateur
attempts at capturing food.
Ga1neland tells a story in which the
follies of seal youth were paid for in tho
days Of maturity. A. S. Agnes Of Pulpit
Harbcr, Nc, found two dead seals about
whose necks were lobster pot funnel
hoops so tightly fastened that the ami
mails had been choked to death by them.
When the seals were small and inexpe-
rienced they had come across lobster
pots in which were Holsters, and in try
ing to get at them had got tho hoops
fast about their necks. At Last the necks
had grown so large that the seals were
strangled-New York Sun
