It's mating and calving season for Elephant Seals at . There is sound as well. Elephants Seals cool their bodies by flipping sand. You can time to time the Bull Males Challenging other males. Lots of pups as well. Enjoy.

At La Jolla Cove, in San Diego County, there's a seal pool where seal pups are raised by their parents. During pupping season the pool is closed to visitors but they can still watch the seals from the sidewalk. However, every year there seems to be some idiots who think it's a great idea to go down to the pool and get as close to the seals as possible so they can take a photo of themselves. Fortunately, many of these idiots are arrested and later end up paying a fine.

Seal Elephants are amazingly fast on land, they do not look like it but getting near them pretty stupid.

Never underestimate the stupidity of humans around wild animals.

People jumping into lion enclosure happens a lot. Some dork in Florida or San Diego actually put there hands out to pet a tiger....
