Most of the sea lion's food is just swallowed whole. The sea lion will toss the fish or squid up and around until it can slide headfirst down the sea lion's mouth. They use their flat back teeth to crush food with a hard shell before swallowing Their principal food is different types of fish like anchovy, herring, whiting, hake, opaleye, mackerel, cod and salmon. They are also known to eat lobsters, krill, crabs, clams, small octopuses and squids which they track in the water using their whiskers. Their feeding style is typical in the sense that they prefer to swallow their food whole rather than chewing though they posses teeth (34-38 in number) which are used mainly for grabbing and cutting food.
