The Cape Palliser Seal colony is located about a two hour drive south west of Wellington. Cape Palliser is the southern most point of New Zealand and is also the site of a significant lighthouse.
This visit took place in January 2018, during the breeding season. The breeding season takes place from mid-November to mid-January. During this time, females give birth to their pups and then mate.
NZ fur seals were once hunted for their fur and meat, but this was fortunately banned in 1894.
