Question

ow Sea Lions Live


A Closer Look
Sea Lions are semiaquatic mammals that are similar to seals in their physical appearance, except they are larger in size and different in behavior. Closer observation can help one distinguish sea lions from seals. For instance, unlike the less social seals, sea lions communicate in a variety of ways.

Sounds
Sea lions roar when they want to be left alone, and this roaring gets louder if they feel threatened. Sea lions can produce sounds resembling musical instruments like trumpets. Sea lions often make trumpet sounds when they sense danger to their colony. A colony is a large group of sea lions. Sea lions also bark to communicate. However, it is widely believed that only male sea lions bark.

Senses
Apart from being communicative, sea lions are also known for their excellent hearing in water and on land. For example, a newborn sea lion, which is called a pup, identifies its mother by memorizing the sounds she makes.

A Mysterious Species
Despite researching the sea lions' interactive behavior for a long time, experts find it difficult to monitor them individually because of their need to stay within large colonies. The protective animals continue to remain a mystery, although they are one of the most expressive species.
