Greetings Card : Californian sea lions
Cards from Science Photo Library
Californian sea lions
Californian sea lions (Zalophus californianus) swimming underwater. This sea lion inhabits coastal regions of the eastern Pacific Ocean. It feeds mainly on fish and cephalopods (squid and octopus). Males are far larger than females, reaching 2.5 metres in length and up to 340 kilograms in weight. Females rarely achieve 100 kilograms in weight and reach a maximum length of around 1.8 metres. It is a social animal, and comes ashore in great numbers. It seems to prefer man-made structures, and this has caused problems in recent years as huge numbers crowd onto jetties, piers and pontoons. Photographed in the Galapagos. The Galapagos population has no contact with the population in North America

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the graceful beauty of Californian sea lions as they swim underwater. These magnificent creatures, known scientifically as Zalophus californianus, are commonly found in coastal regions of the eastern Pacific Ocean. With a diet primarily consisting of fish and cephalopods like squid and octopus, these sea lions have adapted to their marine habitat with remarkable agility. The striking difference between male and female Californian sea lions is evident in this image. Males can grow up to an impressive 2.5 meters in length and weigh up to a staggering 340 kilograms, while females rarely exceed 100 kilograms in weight and reach a maximum length of around 1.8 meters. Being social animals, Californian sea lions often gather ashore in large numbers. However, their preference for man-made structures such as jetties, piers, and pontoons has posed challenges in recent years due to overcrowding issues. Photographed against the backdrop of the enchanting Galapagos Islands, this image captures a unique population that remains isolated from its North American counterparts. The Galapagos population exhibits distinct behaviors and characteristics shaped by its exclusive environment. Science Photo Library presents this stunning print that encapsulates the wonders of nature's biodiversity—showcasing not only the mesmerizing world beneath our oceans but also shedding light on conservation concerns surrounding these fascinating creatures.
