Photograph by @paulnicklen for @ナショナルジオグラフィック. It took quite a while to figure out the relationship between this dominant adult male southern sea lion and this newborn pup. With many predators, like bears, it can be fatal for a newborn to be caught by an adult breeding male. In this situation, however, the mother belongs to a harem. The mother usually heads to sea within three days of giving birth to her pup. The bull knows that she will return for her pup and she will also go into heat after giving birth. We saw other rival males approach this tiny pup during territorial disputes and this bull chased them all off. Nature never ceases to amaze, inspire and teach us something of importance.
