Baikal Nerpa Enamel Pin

✨New for the 2025 Spooky Lake Month!✨ Y'all know the weirdest lake in the world is my favorite: Lake Baikal (don't tell Superior). But one of the features of this lake is the Baikal Nerpa! It's strange, mysterious freshwater seal! KJ & Co created this design.  The Baikal seal, or nerpa, is a plump, round ball of fur and blubber that lives exclusively in Russia’s Lake Baikal (the weirdest, deepest, oldest lake in the world). Nerpas are incredible divers, holding their breath for up to 70 minutes as they hunt for fish under the frozen surface, yet they spend plenty of time lounging on the ice like fat little dumplings. They’re also one of the only freshwater seal species on Earth, which makes them feel like Lake Baikal’s very own secret residents. Also, we have no idea how they got to a landlocked lake in the middle of Siberia ... but they've been there for over 2 million years!  Here's my video on the Nerpa mystery!  P.S. Nerpa translates to seal so everytime I say "nerpa seal" in my videos I'm saying "seal seal". I'll be shipping these myself (well, actually my mom packs all my orders) over the course of October while I'm also creating a Spooky Lake video every day so I appreciate your patience!
