This group of Subantarctic fur seals Atctocephalus tropicalis on the Tristan settlement plain show are a positive sign for a species that thirty years ago were only regularly found in groups at the caves where there is a breeding population resident in summer months. Note how well the fur seals are camouflaged against the grey lava boulders. |
