Image ID: 02113   Species: Guadalupe fur seal, Arctocephalus townsendi Location: Guadalupe Island (Isla Guadalupe), Baja California, Mexico   Guadalupe fur seal, floating upside down under the ocean's surface at Guadalupe Island, watching the photographer and looking for passing predators. Image ID: 02114   Species: Guadalupe fur seal, Arctocephalus townsendi Location: Guadalupe Island (Isla Guadalupe), Baja California, Mexico   Kelp frond showing pneumatocysts. Image ID: 00627   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   Kelp frond showing pneumatocysts. Image ID: 02435   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: Santa Barbara Island, California, USA   Kelp fronds and pneumatocysts. Pneumatocysts, gas-filled bladders, float the kelp plant off the ocean bottom toward the surface and sunlight, where the leaf-like blades and stipes of the kelp plant grow fastest. Giant kelp can grow up to 2' in a single day given optimal conditions. Epic submarine forests of kelp grow throughout California's Southern Channel Islands. Image ID: 25396   Species: Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera Location: San Clemente Island, California, USA   A California brown pelican entangled in a plastic bag which is wrapped around its neck. This unfortunate pelican probably became entangled in the bag by mistaking the floating plastic for food and diving on it, spearing it in such a way that the bag has lodged around the pelican's neck. Plastic bags kill and injure untold numbers of marine animals each year.
