Steller's Sea-lion (Eumetopias jubatus)
Ocean Mysteries with Jeff Corwin - 2011 Steller Sea Lions 2-3 was released on: USA: 20 October 2012
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.
Because it is the circle of life.
Steller sea lions are rare compared to what they were. I just finished a project on them and their population has dropped almost 80% since the 1980's. Today there is under 25,000 of them left so compared to what they were yes they would be considered rare
Steller's Sea Eagle was created in 1811.
Yes! killer whales are eating the pups of the steller sea lions. The pups are born on a off coast island and spend a majority of their pup years off the shore of the island. This makes them easy to find to killer whales and so the killer whales will eat the pups. Since there are less pups, there will be less adult sea lions in the next generation.
Sea lions are very interesting creatures, so there are numerous fascinating facts about them, some of them being: 1. Steller sea lion pups are born black in color and weigh from 18 - 22 kg (40 - 48.5 lbs) and are about 1 m (3.3 ft) in length. 2. A baby sea lion, called a pup, can pick out its mother from among hundreds gathered on rocky shores just by the sound she makes, the mother emits a loud trumpeting vocalization, which elicits a bleating response from her pup. This exchange continues until the mother and pup find each other and makes her final identification by smelling her pup. 3. A group of sea lions in the water is called a raft! 4. Steller sea lions are the largest of the sea lions. They have thick, hairy necks that look like a lion's mane. 5. Sea lions don't need to drink water - they get all the water they need from the food they eat. 6. Male Steller sea lions don't eat during the breeding season. They care more about protecting their territory and making sure their females don't run off with another male! 7. The California sea lion is the sea lion seen in animal shows and circuses 8. Sea lions produce loud roars which explains why they're named after lions. Males of some sea lion species grow thick manes around their necks. 9.A sea lion's ancestors are a seal. 10.And sometimes sea lions sniff poop to see if that poop is their baby. 11. sea lions are warm blooded marine mammals
