Fur Seals

This New Zealand Fur Seal and pups were on the east coast. Almost hunted to extinction in the 1800s for their fur, these seals now have recovered and are commonly found along the coasts.

Explored.

for one moment, small size I thought ... ah .. a bottle ;-)
the textures and features of the rock looked like my bottle ;-)
but I am pleased to see the Fur Seals and to know that
they are now thriving ... plenty of things we can wear to
keep warm without their fur I say ... how lovely to have
seen them George.
