Gigantic steller sea lion dwarfs its tiny California sea lion cousins, Moss Landing, California, America - 2013

California sea lions sleep in a large pile on a crowded dock.
Yes, I'm Special: Gigantic Steller Sea Lion is Head and Shoulders Above The Rest
Some guys just think they are special - and this pumped-up steller seal lion certainly towers above the rest of his cousins.
The gigantic specimen was spotted amidst his diminutive sea lion pals at Moss Landing, California. Although, hilariously, one appears to be trying to ape his huge pal's pose.
Photographer Michael Yang says he has been making this his vacation home for the past several years.
He explains: "He visits for several weeks at a time and resting on the already crowded dock when he is not out hunting for prey.
"The much smaller California sea lions, which are here most of the year, give way when he wants to come onboard.
"The California sea lions are already a local tourist attraction having completely taken over the Visitor's Dock. The Steller sea lion draws even more people. Most people are amazed at how much bigger he is compared to the California sea lions. The dock is right off Highway 1 and only a couple of feet from the parking lot making the sea lions very accessible."
Shelbi Stoudt, Stranding and Data Manager at The Marine Mammal Center, says that the first time they encountered this Steller sea lion was in March of 2011. Since then, it has been coming back yearly for a couple of weeks at a time to rest with the California sea lions on the same dock.
Although this is within the normal range of the Steller sea lion (there is a breeding colony about 40 miles away at Año Nuevo Island), Stoudt explains that it is unusual behavior for a Steller sea lion to rest with a group of California sea lions. She assumes that this is a younger male animal as they tend to explore more, returning to the breeding grounds when they reach sexual maturity.
