November 20, 2023

Amber Harris, a resident of Tasmania, woke up to an unexpected surprise when she discovered Neil, a well-known southern elephant seal, lounging nonchalantly in her driveway.
Unfazed by her daily work responsibilities, Neil had strategically positioned himself for a nap, creating an aquatic obstacle course for Harris's car.
Harris said her office was understanding and were having "a bit of a laugh" about it.
"I think it's going to go down as the best excuse in history of not to go to work," Harris said, laughing.
