Zalophus californianus

California Sea Lion (Zalophus californianus)

Where found: The California Sea Lion is a coastal sea lion of the northern Pacific Ocean.

Description: The California Sea Lion has a streamlined body that contains a layer of blubber under the skin to provide warmth and buoyancy. Their large eyes help them adjust to low levels of light in underwater environments, while their whiskers augment their sense of touch. Their nostrils automatically close once they hit the water. Their long front flippers rotate outward for better movement on land, and propel them forward in water, where they are most at home.
