Leopard seal makes waves in Wellington
It is a bit late but Simon Woolf posted these stunning pics and nice story on Tuesday.
"Another great day for Wellington regarding wildlife. We had two youngsters in town. A young humpback whale was seen in the inner harbour. On Lyall Bay, on our Southern Coast, we had a young leopard seal, which I managed to get a few shots of!
Leopard Seals are amazing to observe, and are highly intelligent. Google, Leopard Seals on YouTube, and you will see how clever these creatures are. Leopard Seals grow to be up 3.5 metres and can weigh up to 600kgs. This juvenile was just under 2 metres, and has some growing to do!
This youngster had been in a battle ( not unusual for young leopard seals!), with some open wounds on its lower neck and torso, however was in pretty good condition otherwise."
