Working with harp seals is like herding cats at Logy Bay Research Site

Daryl Jones, also known as The Seal Guy, laughed when asked what surprises him most about working with harp seals at the only research site of its kind in the world.

 ``When the seals do what we want,'' he said before hand-feeding his charges a snack of herring at the Ocean Sciences Centre in Logy Bay.

``They're smart but they're very independent. They're similar to cats.''
