When male leopard seals dive down into icy Antarctic waters, they sing songs structured like nursery rhymes in performances that can last up to 13 hours, scientists said July 31.
The Australian-led team of researchers compared the complexity of the songs composed by the big blubbery mammals to those of other animals - as well as human musicians like the Beatles and Mozart.
