This morning Kaytee and I watched as two rescued Sea lions were
released by the Pacific Marine Mammal Center's amazing staff. It was
really beautiful. At first when the cages were opened the sea lions
were hesitant. The larger sea lion went into his friends cage! Finally
they made a break for it and swam into the ocean. They swam next to
each other for a while and then we lost sight of them. It was such a
touching moment.
More photos later...
do they know if the sea lions, when they are released together, if they stay together out in the wild? i don't know if this organization tracks their released animals or not. that's happy and sad at the same time though. poor little guys. hopefully, they don't miss their rehab trainers too much.
