Elephant Seal Pup Hugs Photographer
In an uncharacteristic move for an Elephant Seal, this little pup was caught hugging the photographer you see in the image above. Most elephant seal pups do not have much to fear when on land around other seals, so random photographers do not tend to scare them it seems. When this little one grows to full size, it will be around 12 feet in length and between 5,000 and 9,000lbs! Thankfully for this photographer, it was a baby that hugged her. An adult would have literally crushed her.
