*** About California Sea Lions: California sea lions are fascinating and intelligent marine mammals found along the western coast of North America, from the subarctic to tropical waters. Known for their playful nature and loud barks, they are a common sight on the bays of California. These creatures are highly social, often seen lounging on coastal docks and buoys. Their diet primarily consists of fish and squid, and they have adapted well to human presence, often performing playful tricks in exchange for food in managed care. Conservation efforts continue to protect their habitats against pollution and human interference, ensuring these charismatic animals remain a sustainable part of marine ecosystems.
