ナショナルジオグラフィックさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ナショナルジオグラフィックInstagram)「Photo by @PaulNicklen | Entering the territory of elephant seal bulls requires deep respect and calm movements. These are the largest of all seals, with males weighing up to 8,800 pounds. During breeding season, they can be very aggressive. However, my encounter with this sleepy male was quite relaxed, as he lay motionless for hours under cloudy skies in Fortuna Bay. Luckily, this gave me the opportunity to get creative and craft this unusual shot.
