Look at this. A whole beach of baby elephant seal. Plus, there was one big daddy. I will post a picture of him... now!
Guess how enormous he is. No, bigger. He is nearly 16 feet long! My dad, Oats, is just over six feet tall, so imagine 2 2/3 of Oats. Whoa. Plus, when this elephant seal rears up to wobble his giant nose at another guy elephant seal, he stands about eight feet tall. Don't mess with him. He will get you.
According to Wikipedia, the largest elephant seal ever recorded was 11,000 pounds and over 22 feet long. Omg.
When it comes down to it, though, I am more impressed by the adorable babies than by the giganto males.
Stab me in the heart with a cute fork. I'm done.
