Lost fur seal joins cattle herd in South Australia
A little seal has found itself mixing with the wrong herd near Adelaide.
A farmer was more than a little surprised to find the cute addition to his beef herd about 35 kilometres from the sea and kilometres from the nearest river.
He has been left wondering how exactly the fur seal found itself far enough from home to become surrounded by cows in the paddock, south east of Adelaide.

The farmer suspects the seal may have traveled across a lake and up a nearby river to find his way to his new home.
Experts are now on their way to the farm to help the sea lion find its way back to a more natural habitat.
