Anatoly Strakhov discovered this rare mutant — a baby seal with reddish fur and blue eyes — among a family of seals on Tyuleniy Island, Russia:
According to the London Daily Mail, this bizarre creature was rescued after the other seals “took an instant dislike to the ginger pup, leaving it to fend for itself.” A similar genetic anomaly was recently discovered in the United States.
My 12-year-old son Jefferson. He hasn’t been left to fend for himself. Yet.
But if he doesn’t clean up his room . . .
Gingers rule!
Well, THAT’s freaking useless. You can’t a coat out of one baby seal…
One 12-year-old, maybe, get cracking on that room kid!
Thanks for posting this! We were all over this on Common Cents as well…

They’re Evil and should be hunted down and used for CIA Experiments!
I dunno, Stacy, this might be a closer genetic match to Jefferson.
Especially since he’s a pre-teen.
Jealous! (wink)
Stacy, you weren’t anywhere near that sea lion rookery earlier this year were you?
Actually….perhaps I should clarify: the male and animal Gingers should be assigned to the CIA; my crew over at TCOTS should have first dibs [sic?] on the females [very sic].
Yes, indeed, you are sic[k]. 🙂
Dang. That thing looks like something straight out of Dr Seuss.
Don’t knock it – some of those Dr. Seuss characters are filthy rich now. The Cat became a haberdasher and made a fortune shorting fedora futures, Yertle earned millions in car wax products, Grinch is an international philanthropist and Horton practically owns Hooville.
Blue Fish: It’s what’s fer dinner.
Well, just save me Laura Prepon!
How about a pair of slippers? Or maybe a hat?
