- Reason
- The elephant seal reproduction system is quite fascinating, and this is a great action shot highlighting the battles between males for who gets to reproduce. This was cropped from a larger photo, so if anyone wants to make an edit, you should check out the original on flickr.

- Weak Support Although the techinal quality seems OK to me, somthing about it just doesn't seem FP quality. I'm not quite sure what, but it is just doesn't have the 'wow!'. Juliancolton (Talk) 15:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- Question - Why isn't there a 'wow' in two elephant seals trying to rip each other's heads off??? Booksworm Sprechen-sie Koala? 20:34, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Support meets all the criteria.--Svetovid (talk) 17:43, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- Support - as per above. The action in this image and the emotion is very strong - very high 'wow', IMHO. Booksworm Sprechen-sie Koala? 20:34, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
