  • Seaman fue un perro de raza Terranova de color negro caqui, célebre por ser la mascota del capitán Meriwether Lewis, quien lo adquirió por la suma de 20 dólares en Pittsburgh, Pensilvania para su famosa expedición. Él fue el único animal que completó todo el viaje. Durante la expedición, en mayo de 1805, el perro recibió cirugía por una herida causada por un castor. A inicios de 1806 el perro fue robado por indios, causando que Lewis, ajeno a su costumbre, amenazara con quemar la aldea a menos que el perro fuera devuelto. (es)
  • Seaman, a Newfoundland dog, was a member of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, the first trip from the Mississippi River to the Pacific coast and back. He was the only animal to complete the entire three-year trip. Seaman was purchased in 1803 specifically for the expedition by Captain Meriwether Lewis, while he was in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, awaiting completion of the boats for the voyage. He chose a Newfoundland, whose estimated weight is 150 pounds (68 kg) and for which he paid the high price of $20 (equivalent to $362 in 2021): half a month's pay for an Army captain. Working dogs, strong and easy to handle—Lewis describes Seaman as "docile"—, he chose a Newfoundland because they do well on boats, are good swimmers, and can assist in water rescues. His name reflects this. There is no explicit description of Seaman's color or appearance. He is nowadays universally depicted as black or dark brown, the colors of most modern Newfoundlands, but a survey by an art historian of the breed as it was depicted in paintings of the early nineteenth century found "not a single all-black [that] was called a Newfoundland". "In fact, all the early 19th century illustrations which I have found, and whose color I could authenticate[,] were white with black or dark areas and frecklings." (en)
  • 西曼（英文：Seaman）是一頭黑色的紐芬蘭犬，由美國探險家、軍人梅里韋瑟·劉易斯在他的劉易斯與克拉克遠征展覽中以$20美元買下。這頭狗原本打算取名「Scannon」不過最後還是取名「Seaman」。 在展覽期間（約1805年5月14日），兩名上尉梅里韋瑟·劉易斯和威廉·克拉克在西曼的後腿動脈做外科手術（因為西曼被海狸咬傷）。在1806年初，展覽隨著旅行結束之際，西曼被印第安人偷走了。梅里韋瑟·劉易斯罕有地威脅印第安人，除非他們將西曼交還，否則就一把火燒掉他們的村落。 (zh)
