Florian's footage is in the documentary A SEAL'S LIFE produced by Wharton Media and narrated by Dr. Sylvia Earle (DVD at Amazon.com). This film tells a remarkable story of the life and near extinction of the Northern elephant seal. A SEAL'S LIFE was screened at aquaria and marine stations up and down the US west coast, is shown by non-profit organizations to help promote marine conservation issues, and is integrated into the teaching programs at the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and the Coastal Discovery Center at San Simeon Bay, California.

Florian's unique encounter with this elephant seal named Angus (pictured) is published in the book Chicken Soup for the Ocean Lover's Soul (click to see this book at Amazon.com).
