| Summary | "Suomen maan Meripedot: maalikuvilla selitetyt" by Gustaf Erik Eurén is a scientific publication written in the mid-19th century. The book serves as an informative guide on marine mammals, specifically focusing on seals and walruses, providing detailed descriptions of their anatomy, behavior, and hunting practices, as well as their cultural significance in Finnish society and the Northern regions. Throughout the book, Eurén examines the various species of seals found in Finnish waters, including the Weddell seal and the common seal, detailing their physical characteristics, habitat, and breeding behaviors. The author describes the methods used by indigenous populations and local fishermen to hunt these animals, explaining the tools and techniques involved. He also emphasizes the importance of seals to the livelihood of coastal communities, as they provide food, materials for clothing, and other resources. The text combines scientific observations with practical information, making it both a resource for understanding marine biology and an ethnographic account of human interactions with these marine creatures.
