A seal and a cormorant, who prevent each other from being alone on an iceberg in the Antarctic, became the stars of the web

Ukrainian researchers from the Akademik Vernadsky Polar Station say that sometimes it can be difficult to be alone even in the Antarctic. This, in particular, was vividly demonstrated by a seal and a cormorant who could not share an iceberg.

The polar explorers shared a photo on the National Antarctic Science Center's Facebook page, which clearly shows that the Weddell seal found a whole iceberg to rest on alone, but was visited by a blue-eyed Antarctic cormorant. The photo has taken the web by storm, and readers are in a hurry to come up with a good caption for the photo, as Vernadsky researchers promised to give a calendar for the most creative slogan.

And although the Antarctic cormorant visited the iceberg that Weddell seal found, the bird sat down on the edge so as not to bother the mammal, Ukrainian polar explorers noted in the post.

Given the active discussion of the published photo, Vernadsky researchers urged subscribers to come up with a caption for this photo.

"Leave your options in the comments, and we will choose one or more of the most interesting ones and present the winners with our unique Antarctic penguin calendars," the polar explorers emphasized.

Proposals can be sent until 12:00 on January 30. The winners will be announced in the evening of the same day.

"And even in the middle of the ice floes, you may not be alone," one of the posters wrote in rhyme.

"That moment in the session when a student with 'tails' finds you on the other side of the world!" another joked.

"Even if we are as different as a seal and a cormorant, we are on the same ice floe. Let's unite," another subscriber of the Vernadsky's page optimistically emphasized.

In total, there are already more than 200 creative names, but their number is growing every minute.
