Juvenile and adolescent northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) bask in the sun along the Central Coast of California, USA. Some can be seen moulting. Adult males can reach 4 metres in length and weigh over 2, 000 kilograms. Once hunted to near-extinction, northern elephant seals now number close to 200, 000. | |
