That sea lion has better luck with the ladies than I do
Instructions unclear, I now have a pet baby sea lion...
@user-nc7cf4sp1r👍😜
Yeah but look how cute it is! No chance.
@user-nc7cf4sp1r 😂😂😂
@user-nc7cf4sp1r 😂
They did the right thing. They called the experts. Good job ladies.
It's law.
Those experts probably sold it to a zoo some water park
Well they are in college … thank god theyre showing signs of good🤔
Poor hungry thing thought it smelled something fishy
From where that sea lion has his nose I'm guessing he smelt fish
it's either sick or avoiding a predator.
That's what your mom is doing
- Ha!!!!
I avoid Democrappers, -AND Rupublicans.
USA - - - - Remaining frozen within the 2-party system since 1776!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He’s a snuggle monster.
You have an extremely sad (and wrong) worldview
The video says it was a little malnourished.
Such a sweet face lying on the front of the boat. Glad they called for professional help.
Professional help 😂🤦♂️
And an even sweeter face in the boat.
For the girls???
So it can’t be trusted huh? I knew it!
sea lion: dont be scared of me human, I will pet you.. you so cute , you are so adorable
He has the cutest little face , makes you want to hug him
A person with a normal brain should feel that. Baby mammals of other species trigger the brain the same as human babies do.
@@robinblackmoor8732 cool so I am normal, is it also normal to feel the same way for most baby avians? And I also have a soft spot for Turtles who are reptiles.
You do realize that these animals have big teeth and are meat eaters who don't chew their food, they just rip and tear and swallow chunks whole.
@@MusMasi I don't think that has been studied. My best guess is normal people will care for any young animals. Almost every serial killer ever studied started by killing young animals. the brain of a sociopath lacks the trigger mechanism that makes normal people care for young. it is an easy test that a Psychiatrist can use. It is almost impossible for a normal person to not want to pet a puppy. A sociopath will not be interested at all. Never trust a person that does enjoy being near a puppy.
@@robinblackmoor8732 source for that study on serial killers and killing young animals? how does one even reliably get data for killing animals? did they study ones that just so happened to have a known record? which by any logic would be a small percentage of all serial killers, a significant amount of violent crimes are not accounted for to begin with. and finally, correlation does not equal causation. all humans were hunters at one point that would have targeted the easiest prey, which would be young, injured, and old. psychology is not a hard science, they can only make guess work. never trust a person that does not enjoy being near a puppy seems extremely illogical. unless you can provide hard data?
Poor little guy but he had good taste on who to lean on. Well done ladies. Tks for calling the experts. You probably saved his life.
Thats one effing smart seal.....
I'm laughing but it's for all the wrong reasons 🤣🤣
@@michellewilson6249 - Hungry seal pup finds girl with large... ummm... feedbags.
@@Mr.Ekshincould have not said that out loud 💀.
"Dairy Bags anyone? "
"Seal pup : Yes me me me !"
@@Mr.Ekshin hungry seal smells a fish nearby.
This story has my seal of approval.
:applause:
ps. hope your seal is well-fed, unlike this guy
Stop lion
😊
@@CL2- underrated reply, I saw what you did 😁👍
Kudos to you ladies for calling the Marine Mammal Center. It was malnourished and in need!
The seal was probably fed by humans before, which is why it tried it's luck again. Hopefully they weren't stupid enough to feed it. When the seal gets bigger, and tries this, humans will have to unalive the seal to protect the people. People feeding wild animals don't think through the consequences.
They should name their team the Sea-lions
We all know we name the team after my name and my birthday. Duh.
That was going to be the UC Santa Cruz mascot but they went with Banana Slugs instead.
@@Elitist20 banana mush
@@prilep5 Manamana
They're already called the white shark team
They look friendly. Think I'll pop in and say Hello!
As a sealion? 😁
These stories always blow my mind. Baby animals that ask humans for help are often a tough call and it's not always easy to know what's best for the little critters. Seems like this was the best decision. Way to go.
How sweet is that ❤ what an experience 😊
The sea lion is a man of culture
She has an amazing smile. 🙂
Yes, the friendliest sea lion I've ever seen.
The seal?
And the girl, too.
Poor thing was sick and needed some help. You were the help and thanks for staying so cool. Shalom
Oy vey!
For all the harm we’ve caused wildlife, they still know how to ask the right people for help. Amazing!
Something I think a lot of people forget is we've helped wildlife almost as much as we've harmed it, and I think wildlife creatures are starting to learn how to tell which humans will be helpful and which ones will be harmful
So woke 🤣🤣🤣
@@ScuraMax ??
@@ScuraMax not woke enough to know what the heck you mean. 😂
@@ScuraMax what is woke about this?
the human instinct to PET!
It's such an innate part of us. It's a desire to give comfort. One of our adorable, if sometimes unwise traits. I realized that we are born with it when I was watching my 18 month old nephew one year and he was standing in the garden and I realized he was bent over trying to pet the fuzzy bees. I rushed over and saud 'no no, owwie!' and he got lucky. Adorable though. 🥰🐝
@@arcticgoddess and you would think in nature that would condemn us to extinction from all sorts of predators but we have become arguably the most “successful” out of all animals… I just thought about this the other day
@@joeymalinyeah but we have evolved and created distractions.
Humans can be lazy , misguided, forgetful , clumsy etc... all leading to accidents and injury or worse.
I've never once seen a crocodile enter the water and look around thinking "hmmmm why did I come in here again"
You don't see Lions trip over and scuff all they paws.
I've never seen a Robin press snooze on its alarm fall asleep and wake up 30 minutes late for work.
For every great thing humans are , there are thousands of things that we do which fail, we are only alive now because clever people invented things, we no longer invent things , we just sit and watch netflix getting fatter.
I think humans are over rated , a crocodile was here long before us and will be here long after we have become extinct , because while we have a brain that can do lots of things , crocodiles do the one thing absolutely perfectly and thats survive, i would love to be able to do one thing perfectly which means I know I can survive, sadly we are more likely to trip over our own untied laces.
friend-shaped ... can't blame her
It is learned behavior.
Sea Lion picked out a pretty one! Well done youngster!
He smelled fish.
That smile on the sea lion tells you he knew exactly what he was doing.
Sniff sniff😅
Wild animals don't smile
@@AccountInactive They do.
No, not really at all
@@bartobruintjes7056 They don’t.
The last picture of the sea lion it’s very cute ❤😂
It sure is! 🥰
Very smart of them to make sure to call for help with the poor sea lion. ❤
Very nice to hear that these girls had common sense to call for help.
Precious Little Soul 💗
Weirdest thing ever happened to me while out on the water (Freshman year, 1993, Pacific Lutheran University on American Lake in Tacoma, Washington) was that we almost got hit by a car.
No, really - it was all "stroke....stroke...stroke....HARD TO PORT, CAR!" turns out the guy that lived on the island in the middle of the lake we practiced on had one of those amphibious cars, and used it to commute the 200 feet or so to the shore. It was foggy and kinda dark in the morning, and we didn't see each other until it was almost too late.
1993, that's phone cam prehistoric
I feel like this is the human equivalent of a moose getting eaten by an orca.
Once in a life time special moment that she will cherish for the rest of her life, to have photos of that moment even better.
Yeah sure
Cute sea lion, pretty girl. 😂
What a cutie. That smile melts hearts😊
The girl or the sea lion?
@@markyncoleboth
It's pretty obvious from the picture that he was looking for the cause of the fish smell.
Not many fish left
sea lion disagreed
What a beautiful, innocent face! And the sea lion looks cute too😅
He's got good taste
Thank you for taking care of him!
0:14 It looks like the sea lion certainly knows where to go and has his priorities in line.
Sea Lions love Fish....As the Reporter stated "Sea Lion was Mal Nurished". In other words very hungry. Sea Lion didn't want to be Petted. He was hungry.
@@paullake1114 Like a "304" house at low tide!
ADORABLE .That critter was kinda cute too
Big Fat Smile here too :-)
Thanks for sharing 👍
I would be really nervous that there was a big shark in the water.
I really hope the baby sea lion says "egg" or something😁
What a fun and memorable experience. Thank you for saving his life.
Calm as a clam in a canoe.
Also glad the seal was chill.
What did that sea lion smell?
@@kjnoahEither 🧀 or 🍓
@@falcon4548 strawberry cheesecake
Probably trying to escape a shark.
Or maybe his momma got eaten by a shark a few weeks ago.
I thought they said they were rowing in a lake... Sharks swim in lakes now? Aren't they saltwater animals?
@@Azarath_Metrion_ZinthosYes, so are SEA Lions.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthosthey said nothing about a lake. Watch again.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos Marina Del Rey is a saltwater marina open to the Pacific Ocean.
Baby sea lion is so cute (0:35). Even seems like he is smiling. 😊
THANK YOU
It must have smelled fish in boat...
Was waiting for some male to write this.
@@carmenhunter4380 Glad I didn't disappoint.
Why would there be fish in the boat? They were not fishing
@@nvmffs I hope you're just feigning ignorance.
@@carmenhunter4380 did you just asume his gender? 🤬
Just seen this clip, glad the animal got help, btw, miss Hibbard is gorgeous ❤
Calm down child predator.....
Thank you❤
I'd be freaking out.
Little cutie!
yep! And the sea lion pup was too.
@@SPIKESPIEGEL1969 Yeah well....
Awe so precious. 💙
Bless the young girls and also praying that sea lion is ok and in good health!
Shark chasing it.
Shark ! 😋
Nothing but love for this! ♥️♥️♥️
Adorable little sealion he was hungry ❤
My 1st thought was escaping a shark too.
Looks to me like it smelled fish
hahahah
Smart pup! 🫶🏻 Speedy recovery little guy.
Both adorable!
Hey, uh... I am a sea lion, can I jump in your... HEY! Why are you hitting me with your oars?
Gentle Puppy
Beautiful, I hope the pup is doing better.🙏💗
It warms my heart Im happy he is okay he is sooooooo cute
The smell of fish is strong.
🐖
Or could it have been shrimp?
Were they fishing?
I'm a terrible person for scanning for this comment.
@@BigChungus-zg6zwikr ?
Sea Doggo
Super cute and God bless them!!
Im so jealous the sea lion chose you to help him.
So glad you called the marine center.
He smelled something fishy...🐟🤭🤦♂️.
Smart!
I’m glad they contacted sources that could help it.
What a sweet thing, sea lion knew you ladies were friendly. 😊glad you seeked help in regards to the mammals well being. Sea lion probably would not have lasted much longer out in the water 🌊 being malnourished.
You know he was happy af lol
He maybe a cultured sea lion 😂
0:37
OMGOSH!! Look at the precious face!!❤️🥰😍😘❤️
Yeah! She’s a lovely rower!
Aww, simply adorable!!
Oh, and the sea-lion is nice, too!
😉
sooooo cute🥰😘💕
he followed his nose
She didn't shower in days, and he liked the scent. Good job little guy! Nom nom nom.
I’m very happy that the pup was so personable, that has very likely saved its life.
What a beautiful smile!
The sea lion smelled fish 🐟
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Awesome
Destruction of fish food sources causes strange behaviour. Have played with these when snorkeling they know humans won’t hurt them
So cute!
0:34 look at that cutie :)
What was chasing him inside that water? A bully shark?
Wow! What a beauty! The sea lion too!
I love his face!
Oh, it's cute when a baby sea lion does it, but when I do it, I get arrested and charged...the hypocrisy
Nice overdone joke. Can't you ppl think of something original for once?
The Sea Lion was lured by the "Fishy Smell" from the boat.
@@somnuswaltz5586 nice cliche answer. Do you have an original thought?
You can't have a "cute" enough face.
@@somnuswaltz5586 You, too.
That sea lion just couldn't resist those gams.
Or the strong smell of menstruation ...it was malnourished and that boat might have smelled fishy, so...🤪
or the fish smell
@@tdc9136 🤣🤣 No cap...For example, there is a correlation of shark attacks and menstruation. 🦈
Sea lion: Girl, all I want is your name, address and telephone number.
Nature is so quite and surprised us all from time to time.
That sea lion smelt fish😊
Looking for that fish? Where tf is that fish?
I think he found it
She has such a beautiful smile
What a smile !
The sea lion probably thought he smelled fish
He did. Smart guy he went right for it.
I smell some tuna. You young lady do you have it? I'm very malnourished.
How old are you? 13 🤨 Dumb comment. The sea lion probably felt their kind energy and stayed with them. Grow up.
That’s just plain rude and crude. How old are you? 12?
@@jenniferlastella210 she is on a boat in the water. Nothing bad was said. Seems you mind is in the gutter .
Both the girl and the sea lion were cute!
Always a s I m p in the boat
Sea Lion Hopped Aboard, CONFUSED IM OUT OF THE WATER, YET I CAN STILL SMELL TUNA.!
As Her Colleagues Laughed, Who's Got A SMELLY FANNY.!😅😅😂😂
Such a big smile
You’ll do anything if you’re hungry said the sea lion
Don't get bit!!! You'll contract SEALFINGER
I had no idea that was a thing, thx!
Ya, I learned about it when I visited a sea life re-hab place, they explained it to me lol
