Animal: Elephant Seals

Elephant seals, named for their large size and distinctive proboscis, are extraordinary marine mammals that navigate the world’s oceans with a graceful blend of power and agility. Two primary species, the northern and southern elephant seals, are known for their impressive size, with males boasting massive, inflatable noses. These remarkable creatures are well-adapted to life at sea, spending the majority of their lives in the open ocean but returning to coastal areas for crucial activities such as breeding and molting.
