Meet Elizabeth, a massive and incredibly stubborn elephant seal who decides to make her home in the unlikeliest of places. Instead of living in the freezing ocean with the rest of her kind, she prefers sunbathing on the warm asphalt roads of Christchurch, New Zealand, right next to the Avon River.
While the local citizens adore her, a two thousand pound wild animal blocking traffic is a serious safety hazard. Concerned city workers decide to load Elizabeth onto a boat and tow her far out into the deep sea, hoping she will join another colony of seals.
However, Elizabeth has other plans. No matter how many times she is relocated across miles of churning ocean water, she always finds her way back to the city streets she loves. Follow this amazing, true story of a determined sea creature who refuses to let anyone else tell her where she truly belongs.
