Seal Pupping Season Closes Part of Point Reyes

Starting today, a portion of Point Reyes will close "while thousands of resting and pupping harbor seals come onshore in various parts of the park." Drakes Estero will shutdown for the pups until June 30. Last year, according to BCN via CBS 5, "about 3,500 harbor seals were counted in the area, including about 1,000 pups. That number makes up about 20 percent of the state's mainland population of the species."
