thanks rock bigsmile I am a big fan of conservation and the efforts of my country . Sadly not everyone in nz is protective of our marine life . There have been reports in the past of seals and dolphins harmed by idiots . Those people exist in every country . On the whole New Zealanders are very caring .

Sad, but true.
There are idiots everywhere that will go out of their
way; to maliciously harm the defenseless.

It's good, to be able to read some good news
for a change.

Aww, I envy you. I was able to see a bunch of seals on an island in Maine, they were adorable. I miss the wildlife I saw regularly when I was traveling.

I imagine it would be worrisome when the pups are alone. Hopefully no one bothers them. I'm glad this mum and pup have the community looking out for them. :)

Will be watching their progress . Sea lions can be very dangerous especially when threatened . Hopefully they will enjoy the serenity of the golf course and there are no wayward golf balls . Looking forward to seeing them both back in the ocean .

I was only playing. Don't send me to the naughty corner!

I wish the news had more good news stories like that - I believe they are out there, just not reported
