In January, you can ofen see young male Elephant seals practice fighting or jousting in this casee, for when mating season come around..
There is something almost graceful in their commitment to it. You do not press your whole weight against something you are indifferent to. You do not roar at something you are ready to walk away from.
This is two creatures who care enormously about the same thing, Fighting for love .
