'''Elephant seals''' are some of the most polygynous animal species on the world. As such, a single alpha male will accrue up to 30 or even more of the females as a harem. Thereby, typically there are no females left for the other male elephant seals, thus relegating most male elephant seals to becoming [[truecel]] for the rest of their life. | '''Elephant seals''' are some of the most polygynous animal species on the world.
