Come out to see the seals! ❤️

Extra, extra! Hot off the presses: the latest elephant seal update is now live on the NPS website. Each week during elephant seal pupping season, the Point Reyes monitoring team publishes a roundup of seal counts, photos, and other weekly happenings across the Seashore.

This week, we learned that elephant seal counts continue to increase across all Point Reyes sites, with the expected peak count of the season to occur around the last week of January. Also in this issue:
