Thanks for the kind words.

The Male Elephant Seal is quite supple despite its size. It is also large -
a fully grown male would be 5 metres long and weigh 3 tonnes (3000kg).
However, their name comes not from their size, but because their nose, when
fully grown, resembles a short trunk.

Cheers
Jayanand
