The Grey Seal Halichoerus grypus is the largest seal in UK waters, with more than fifty percent of the global population found in UK waters. Between the tides they haul themselves out on to rocks, usually on uninhabited offshore islands in Scotland and Wales though sometimes on secluded mainland beaches. Grey seals are gregarious at these sites, forming large groups of several hundred seals, especially when they are moulting their fur in the spring.
