Best Answer

California sea lions are faster than any other seal or sea lion - they can swim up to 25 miles per hour. They can slow their breathing and remain underwater for nearly 10 minutes. They may hunt continuously for up to 30 hours, with each dive lasting 3-5 minutes. They can grow to weigh more than 800 lbs (nearly 400 kg). They have little ear flaps covering their ear openings, unlike seals, which just have a hole. Also unlike seals, they can rotate their hind flippers forward and actually walk on all fours instead of just scooting across the ground.
