🐾Leopard seal
얼룩무늬물범(Hydrurga leptonyx)은 남극에 있는 물범 중 남방코끼리물범에 이어 2번째로 큰 종이다. 얼룩무늬물범속(Hydrurga)의 유일종으로 표범해표, 표범물개, 얼룩바다표범 등으로도 불린다. 남극의 먹이사슬에 최상에 위치해 있다. 남극연안과 아남극 지역에 흔하지만, 오스트레일리아, 남아프리카, 뉴질랜드 등의 남부에도 발견되기도 한다. 최대수명은 26년이지만 그보다 더 많을 수도 있다. 표범물개의 유일한 천적은 사람을 제외한 범고래뿐이다. 인간에게 잠재적으로 큰 위협이 될 수 있으나, 기록된 공격 사례는 드문 것으로 알려져 있다.
