SOUTHERN ELEPHANT SEAL PUPS REST ON PATAGONIAN BEACH IN ARGENTINA
One-month-old southern elephant seal pups rest on the Punta Delgada

permanent continental colonies of this species, with the rest on
islands near Antarctica. The population swells to more than 40, 000 in
the season from August through November when the herds gather on the
beaches to give birth and mate again before heading back out to sea.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of nature as one-month-old southern elephant seal pups find solace on the picturesque Patagonian beach in Argentina. The Valdes Peninsula, nestled in Argentina's Patagonia region, serves as a haven for these adorable creatures and hosts one of the world's few permanent continental colonies of southern elephant seals. The image showcases the remarkable sight of over 40,000 seals gathering on these shores during their breeding season from August to November. Here, they give birth and engage in mating rituals before embarking on their journey back into the vastness of the sea. It is a mesmerizing spectacle that highlights both the resilience and fragility of life in this remote corner of our planet. Photographer Rickey Rogers masterfully captures this moment, allowing us to witness firsthand how these young pups rest peacefully amidst their natural habitat. Their innocence and vulnerability are palpable, reminding us of our responsibility to protect and preserve such precious ecosystems. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a world far removed from our own daily lives—a world where nature reigns supreme and its inhabitants thrive undisturbed. Through Rogers' lens, we are reminded that there is still much wonder left to discover within our own planet if only we take a moment to appreciate it.
