Nature’s mosh pit - northern fur seal pup style! 🥹 A secluded cove becomes a seaside nursery. Hundreds of northern fur seal pups rest along the shore, hiding from hungry great white sharks, as they wait for their mothers to return from foraging. Pups are born between June and August. They are weaned by late November and then head out to sea on their own.
