Elephant Seals

We spent the day in Santa Cruz at a national park watching the Elephant Seals migrate. They are very interesting creatures. With there huge bodies and huge noses they make these horrible screeches for mating calls! We sat on the hill ant watched the males claim their territory over other males and we watched the woman protect their young from the crazy men. These women seals are always pregnant! they come to migrate when they are ready to have there baby and then they mate and get pregnant and go back out to the ocean. The whole thing is kinda weird. Here are some pictures I took so you can get a better idea of what they look like!
