%AN mild-eyod harbor seal fight?
4 Ask Elroy Greenlcaf, a Lower
- Casco Bay lobsterman For the
past two months seals have been I'M
usually plentiful around the mouth of
the New Meadows River. They are
anathema TO fishermen for when the
seals swim in, the fish swim out.
Greenleaf was pulling his string of
lobster pots close TO the shore of a
little rocky island called East Brown
Cow when he happened 20 glance into
cove. IT was low water and away
up at the head Of the flats he saw a
small seal. Greenleafs dog Bonzo was
with him.
Bonzo was just ordinary dog, yellow
haired and weighing about go pounds.
Among the CANNES of the Lower Bay
he had demonstrated his fine fighting
qualities and Greenleaf thought he saw
chance for some fun. So ne rowed
ashore and "sicked" Bonzo on the seal

it's tail and made such wicked slashes
toward it's attacker that the dog
stopped, puzzled
Then, dropping flat, the seal did as
pretty a pivot blow as the old-time
prize ring ever saw. The powerful
tail smashed Bono squarely across the
mouth, knocking out three teeth. An
other smack of the flail-like tail
against the dogs side cracked a rib.
Bonzo gamely tried to fight back but
now the two were splashing in six
inches OF water. The seal grew better
all the time and the dog worse.
Then the young seal got a grip on
Bonzo's forepaw and slowly began
working him into deep water. Green
leaf realized that in a minute or two
the seal would drown his pet. The
terrified Bonzo was doing no fighting
now, just scrambling to get foothold
