Windswept mama sea lion

Gorgeous close up on sand blown Mama kake, New Zealand sea lion, Ōtepoti Dunedin.

Taken while lying on the sand in early spring time on a cold, deserted and windswept beach near Ōtepoti, Dunedin.

Pakake, New Zealand sea lion, are one of the rarest sea lion species in the world and are endemic to Aotearoa New Zealand. Although Patake were once hunted to near oblivion and disappeared entirely from mainland Aotearoa, they started returning three decades ago to breed in some coastlines in the far south. Pakake are nationally vulnerable.

A bit about terminology: Pakake is the Māori word in the dialect of Māori in the Ōtepoti region for New Zealand sea lion. Whakahao for the male of this species, and kake for the female.
