Sea Lion (Eumetopias jubata)
The Stellar and California Sea
Lions are found throughout the west coast Pacific Ocean waters of British
Columbia. The sea lions are excellent swimmers with large lung capacities
which enables them to stay under water for an extended period of time.
The sea lions enjoy sunbathing in the hot sun and when the weather kicks
up a fuss they will slip into the water and wait till the stormy days
pass.
The young sea lions are born in June and by August are
great swimmers and follow the adults out to the open waters. Sea lions
will eat fish and often feed on the sea lamprey.
Often considered a dumb creature, the sea lion is actually
very intelligent and inquisitive, often approaching boats to investigate
by popping their heads out of the water to take a look.
