THE bizarre reproductive behavior of these largest of seals makes interesting reading as the author describes and clarifies winter activity in the rookeries at Aņo Nuevo State Reserve on the California coast. Many excellent photographs. Excerpted from The Natural History of Aņo Nuevo.

"If a visitor appreciates that each individual [seal] is competing with every other one...to leave the greatest number of offspring...what is seen falls into place." Burney J. LeBoeuf
