I was fortunate to see this cute Australian Fur Seal Pup which seemed to be the only one that I could see in the colony of seals at the Friars.
Since Fur seals apparently breed between October and December, this pup would have only been a few months old when I saw it in February. Scientists estimate that about 5,000 pups are born in Tasmanian waters each year.
