RSS The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is seeking a $10,000 fine and has proposed denying Davis research rights for the next five years. Davis said yesterday the civil charges are unwarranted and he plans to fight them. "The research community I'm a part of is to help the decline of the Steller sea lion," he said. "We're working to improve the population." Davis has been studied marine mammals in Alaska for 30 years and sea lions for 15 years. He has published dozens of articles on the species. In 2003 and 2004, he partnered with the Seward-based Alaska SeaLife Center to study the winter habitat and habits of juvenile sea lions, a particularly vulnerable group of the imperiled species. The population of Steller sea lions plummeted in the late 1970s. In the western part of the state, the mammals are listed as endangered. Those populating the eastern part of Alaska are listed as threatened. Davis was working in a part of Prince William Sound where the endangered listing applies. He said the animals he captured, tagged with satellite tracking devices and released all fared well in the six to eight months during which he monitored them.

Steller's Sea Lion
While enjoying a warm sunny day and a casual stroll through one of Southeast Alaska's many boat harbors, its not uncommon to see a Steller's sea lion rolling lazily through the water or even sunning itself on the dock. This pinniped, or flippered mammal, has a tawny yellowish brown body and can weigh over a ton. The Steller's sea lion ranges from the Channel Islands off the southern California coast north to the Bering Sea. Steller's sea lions spend their winter months in shallow water free of fast ice near the coast, and may be observed on gravel beaches or ice flows that are not too far out to sea. This mammal is most frequently found on remote rocky coasts well away from civilization. Others prefer to live in harbors, swimming between the boats or sunning on a dock. Like other pinnipeds, the sea lion has large flippers with small nails. Females are slim, while the male has massive shoulders and a thick, muscular neck with a substantial mane of long, coarse hair. Its head is bear-like, with a straight muzzle and small, pointed ears. Adult females grow as long as seven feet and can weigh up to 800 pounds. Adult males reach lengths of thirteen feet and can weigh up to 2,400 pounds. The eyes of the sea lion are unusual because there is a circle of white around the outer edges of the iris. Sea lions can dive to depths of 600 feet to find food. Their diet includes a wide variety of invertebrate marine life including squid and octopus. They also enjoy cod, herring, pollock, halibut, and salmon. When hunting for food, they prefer off-bottom, schooling species.

The Australian Sea-lion Sea-lions swim in cold sea water. They eat fish. They live on beaches. They have flippers instead of legs. They are covered in fur. Sea-lions are ' pinnipeds ', which means 'fin foot', like seals. They are marine mammals, able to swim in extremely cold water. Sea-lions and fur seals are similar, and are in a family known as 'eared seals'. Unlike the 'earless seals',they are quite agile on land. The front flippers are used on land to prop themselves up on, and in the water to swim with. They use their back flippers rather like a leg on land, and as a rudder in the water. They have a layer of fur under the top fur, and this helps keep them warm in the cold water, together with a thick layer of fat. The Australian sea-lion is the only pinniped that is found only in Australia, living along parts of the western and southern coastline. They were once found further east, but seal hunters killed the colonies in Bass Strait towards the end of the 19th century. Males weigh about 300 kilograms. They are about three times heavier than the females. Males have dark brown fur with pale neck and females have grey fur on their back with creamy fur on their front. They are very social animals, and gather in groups of 10-15. They spend time sunbaking on sandy beaches and rocks.

The California sea lion is a type of seal that lives in cool waters off the rocky coast of western North America. This marine mammal makes a roaring noise (hence its name), barks, and honks. Sea lions are fast swimmers, going up to 25 mph (40 kph) in short bursts. They are also very fast on land, "walking" with all four flippers. These intelligent and social animals congregate in large groups on land (called colonies) and smaller groups in the water (called rafts). Breeding areas are called rookeries. (Classification: Suborder Pinnipedia, Family Otariidae, Subfamily Otariinae, Genus Zalophus, Species californianus) Anatomy : The California sea lion has a thick layer of blubber (fat), short, thick fur that is dark brown to buff-colored, and a dog-like head. Males (called bulls) are darker and bigger than females. Males also have a thick furry mane around the neck. Bulls weigh up to 850 pounds (380 kg) and are up to 8 feet (2.5 m) long. Females weigh up to 250 pounds (115 kg) and are up to 6.5 feet (2 m) long. The whiskers (called vibrissae) help the seal's sense of touch. The nostrils are closed in the resting state. The sea lion has small external ears and a good sense of hearing. It also has keen eyesight but no color vision.

The Louisiana Lions Camp My apologies for being so long in getting any information regarding the hurricane on our site. Camp has been occupied by evacuees since two days before the storm made landfall and many here lost their homes and all of their belongings. Camp will be open to them until they have a place to go to. The support of the local community has been outstanding and we have received help from all corners of the nation. We are still glad to recieve donations of Wal-Mart, Target, Stage, etc. gift cards for our evacuees as well as non perishable food . We are unable to recieve any more clothing due to space and at this point, we do not know when or where we will be able to send what we have received. The Lions Club members and evacuees have been working to sort and rebox what has arrived at camp so that we can eventually redistribute to other areas. As best as can be determined, our campers, staff members and Lions are all safe and we are very thankful. Please email lalions@lionscamp.org

Steller's Sea Lion
The Steller's (or northern) sea lion Eumetopias jubatus ) inhabits the north Pacific Ocean and is the largest member of the family of Otariidae, or "eared seals." Sea lions differ from hair seals (harbor seals, ringed seals, ribbon seals, bearded seals, and spotted seals) in that sea lions have external ears and rear flippers which turn forward allowing them to "walk" with a gait similar to land mammals. They are called sea lions because they resemble the terrestrial lion of Africa and Asia. Large adult male Steller's sea lions have disproportionately large necks and shoulders. This, coupled with longer, coarser hair on the neck and shoulders, gives them the appearance of having manes, as do lions. General description: At birth, the sea lion pup's coat is chocolate brown with a frosty appearance because the tips of the hair are colorless. Color gradually lightens as the animal ages and periodically molts. Most adult females are a yellowish, cream color on the back, although some remain darker. Nearly all males stay darker on the front of the neck and chest; some are even a reddish color. Males and females have a marked size difference. Weight at birth is 51 pounds (23 kg), and body length is 45 inches (112 cm). Females grow rapidly during the first four years but slow by the fifth year, with little growth after age 6. Males continue to grow until the eleventh year. Although there are variations, most females reach maximum size by the seventh year, and males reach adult size by the twelfth year. The average weight of an adult male is 1,245 pounds (566 kg), and the body length averages 10 2/3 feet (282 cm). Adult females average 579 pounds (263 kg) in weight and 8 2/3 feet (228 cm) in length. Although only 20 percent longer, the average adult male weighs over twice as much as the average adult female.

American Alligator ... Make a Difference Steller Sea Lion (Eumetopias jubatus)
Factoid: The Steller sea lion got its name from the German naturalist Wilhelm Steller, who described it as a "lion of the sea" because of its golden eyes and bellowing roar.
Status: Stellers are threatened everywhere, except the population segment in Alaska, which is endangered.
Population: 40,000 to 64,000, 70 percent of which reside in Alaska.
Threats: Sea lion populations in the Gulf of Alaska are dwindling because their prey is declining as commercial fisheries increase their take. Gunshots and net entanglement are also to blame for sea lion deaths. Stellers are protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act.
Survival:
The average life span of Steller sea lions is about 20 to 23 years. Steller sea lions are the largest sea lions and are often confused with California sea lions. Steller males are larger than bears, weighing up to 2,200 pounds. They can be 8 to 11 feet long. Females are a bit smaller, at 6 to 8 feet long and 600 to 800 pounds. Stellers are light to reddish-brown and bulky. Their thick necks resemble a lion's mane, which contributes to their name.
