Today's weather trivia: 24 March 2010: Sea ice along Newfoundland and
Labrador¿s Northern Peninsula coastline broke up and blew out to sea,
leaving many dead seal pups in its wake. The lack of sea ice in the northern
Gulf of St. Lawrence had driven thousands of seals onto the shore-fast ice
and beach to give birth. The young shore-bound seals had become a
sightseeing attraction and an easy meal for bald eagles, coyotes, and foxes.
