Post via Adorable ❤️ but disappearing 🥺 These 3 little Australian sea-lion pups interrupted their mischief-making in the sand dunes of Seal Bay in Kangaroo Island, to peer at me and my photo tour guests, before soon loosing interest and going back to rolling around and biting each other as they waited for their mums to return from the southern ocean to give them another feed of milk.

Ten years ago an estimated mere 14,730 Australian sea lions existed on Earth. 4 years later only 6,500 mature adults were estimated to be left and the population at all but one breeding colony continues to fall. They are now one of the most endangered pinnipeds (seals and sea lions) in the world. Main threats these days are apparently intersections with commercial fishing gear and illegal shooting. Fish aquaculture also causes loss of their habitat, entanglement and direct killing too. Some drown entangled in rock lobster traps and commercial fishers illegally shoot them because the sea lions compete with ‘their fishery’. They are also caught as bycatch in both SA and WA fishing industry, which is now thankfully reducing in the Dangerous Reef area due to closure of that gillnet fishery and pup numbers are increasing there. 👍

I’ve had a bit of luck with the cuteness-overload of this photo - my favorite was seeing it printed as a larger than life feature wallpaper on the national park info centre there, enjoyed by more than 100,000 visitors every year ☺️

Cleaning stations can be some of the most beautiful bommies. They are often densely populated by swarming fish and encrusted with sponges, corals and a great diversity of invertebrates. Mantas always know where the best places to visit are.

Repost via Baby Christmas Island Red Crab on my finger! Amazingly, no one knows where these adorable little critters hang out for the month of their life!!! One month before I took this, one of the largest animal migrations on Earth was in full swing: Some 40-million red crabs had emerged from their jungle borrows on this tropical paradise and made their way down to the coast to mate, then all spawn billions of eggs into sea together at the turn of the tide one very special morning. The eggs hatch instantly and are washed out to see as tiny plankton-like whirlygigs. But where do those that are not swallowed by the waiting whale sharks, go? No one knows. Do they drift way out on ocean currents, or do they hang around down deep somewhere locally? Four weeks later, they're much larger and have morphed into their 'megalope' stage - a bit like a cross between a prawn and a crab – and suddenly millions and millions of them turn up one morning, carpeting the shoreline red as they moult into these cute mini crabs and scurry upwards into the jungle. Some years almost none return, others (like this recent season) were absolutely epic, the biggest ever. Sometimes a few wash up on Cocos (keeling) Island almost 1000km away, so maybe they are out there in the big blue sea, at the mercy of ocean currents and some years the current just doesn't bring many back? Who knows? It's a big mystery here.

A few years back, during the baby crab return, some scuba divers came upon immense underwater clouds of the megalopes, just hanging off one the many km of world-class drop-off dive walls here. They said it was such a dense congregation that reaching in, their whole arm would disappear inside the mass. Had they just risen from deeper down, or just drifted in, what brought them together? Why was nothing (except whale sharks) eating them? So fascinating. I love this place.
