  • The only female elephant seal on the island had her pup this morning
  • the 4 male elephant seals have been very curious about it
  • The largest male has chased off the other 3 males anytime they get close to the female
  • The pup has almost been trampled a few times, so I guess we will see how it is doing tomorrow
