Description
This adorable baby Elephant Seal was born at the Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Rookery on the Central Coast of California.
Northern Elephant Seals have been coming ashore here to breed and give birth since 1990, when a few individuals found the beach north of San Simeon to their liking. By 2021 that small population has become a colony of over 25,000 individuals that share an eight mile stretch of beach.
