You never know what you might come across walking on the beaches of New Zealand! Sam managed to capture this picture of a leopard seal on Plimmerton beach back in 2016. It was picked up by Newshub and shared across the world on social media thousands of times!
Note to readers: Leopard seals are very dangerous! Keep your distance. This one looked like he was dying when Sam first came across him - it turned out that he had probably swum all the way from the Antartic and had stopped here for a rest!
