They've also been seen on the South African and South Australian coasts, around Tasmania, New Zealand, Lord Howe Island, the Cook Islands, and Tierra del Fuego.

Global warming affects leopard seals by causing a decline in sea ice, which is essential for their hunting and breeding. The reduction in sea ice also impacts the availability of prey for leopard seals, leading to potential food shortages. Additionally, changes in ocean temperature and acidity due to global warming can disrupt the ecosystem that supports the seals' food sources.
Well first of all let's think about where they live. They live near ice so if it gets warmer the ice would melt. Then if that happens they would be affected because their habitat is distroyed . ( by global warming )
It's difficult to provide an exact number of seals that died specifically due to global warming in a given year. Climate change can impact seals by altering their habitats, impacting food availability, and increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. These changes can have negative effects on seal populations, but estimating the direct impact of global warming on seal deaths is complex.
