Says something about climate change...

Coming in the next edition of Ocean Geographic is great news for coral reefs - a 26-pages feature of BUNAKEN MARINE PARK - Past, Present & Future. From our editorial visit and a Rapid Health Assessment by scientists this year, with pictures and scientific evidence, we conclude that in several aspects, the CORAL REEFS OF BUNAKEN ARE EVIDENTLYin IN BETTER SHAPE THAN 30 YEARS AGO. www.OceanGeographic.com.au , , , ,

A sub adult female elephant seal found herself a little too far away from home - maybe she needed to take a vacation :-) Her normal distribution is the sub -Antarctic islands so Sodwana Bay would certainly have been a little too warm for her. She was taken to UShaka Marine World where she will be taken care of until her release back into the wild once her condition has been assessed.

Fun fact: The bull elephant seal can weigh up to 10 times her weight (3,6 tons)!
