They are also mammals.
This SeaLion is endemic to Australia, that is it is only found in Australia. They are particularly found in South Australia and Western Australia.
As you can see they are very sociable and very curious.

Steve McKenzie
great shot…....is this also dangerous ‘grounds’ for white pointers?
Aengus Moran replied
Oh Yeah, Great White country big time!
This shot was taken at Hopkins Island in South Australia. We had chartered a boat for 4 days to go to the Neptune Islands to dive with the Whites but stopped off at Hopkins on the way out. Depth was at most 8 metres and visibility was a hazy 8 to 10 metres.
Several times the Sea Lions (they are not Seals) disappeared resulting in very very nervous 380 degree scans.
I’m glad we got in with them on the way out, not sure if I’d have entered the water on the way back after seeing the Whites!
Thanks again everyone for your words!
