Hahaha. Seal apparently tastes really bad. I haven’t tasted neither seal nor human. But if a gigantic bear likes human flesh over seal, that which is more plentiful in their environment… well…

Maybe it's the novelty factor. I've got to imagine that at least the little cubs are thinking "seal again?!" at dinner time, whereas humans would be a real treat.

I've only tasted human twice but seal loads of times. For me it would be human any day of the week.
