SEA-ELEPHAXT. 



These enormous seals (about 20 feet in length) are becoming very scarce. When they come ashore, they are easily approached, though 

 not so easily killed. They are much valued for their oil. Note the trunk-like prolongation of the nose, which, when the animal is excited, 

 becomes distended.
