Are stellar sea lions endangered?
The Steller's Sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus), is also known as the Northern sea lion. It lives in the northern Pacific. The population of eastern and Asian steller sea lions (California, British Columbia and south east Alaska) is currently at the status of "under threat". The western Steller's sea lions (Gulf of Alaska, Bering Sea, Russia and Japan), particularly those around the Aleutian Islands, were placed on the endangered list in the 1990s, their population having fallen by 70-80% since the 1970s. It is thought that killer whales, their main predator, has played a major part in the reduction of their numbers, as has overfishing of the steller sea lions' food supply. In the past, they have been hunted for their skin. Steller's sea lions do not hibernate, as they are well insulated by their blubber.
