[National Geographic Wallpaper] Southern Elephant Seal (남방코끼리물범)

Stromness Bay, South Georgia island, Falkland Islands
1998
Maria Stenzel

Elephant seals, so named for their massive bulk and distinctive noses, huddle on the beach of Stromness Bay. Male elephant seals' inflatable noses resemble elephant trunks and amplify their vocalizations.
