Steller's Sea-lion (Eumetopias jubatus)
Californian Sea Lions are not endangered. But a few years ago they were an endangered species They were mainly hunted for their skins and probably for food.
Sea lions are not currently on the endangered species list. However, some species of sea lions are classified as "Near Threatened" or "Vulnerable" due to threats like habitat loss, climate change, and human activities. Conservation efforts are in place to protect these species and their habitats.
Seals, sea lions, seahorses.
Orcas (killer whales) eat the sea otter which is partly why they are an endangered species.
Sea Lions live in all climates in all the world's oceans except the Atlantic Ocean.
Of the six species of Sea Lions, 2 species are listed as endangered and one is listed as vulnerable; the other three are not considered to be in any danger of extinction.
all seven of the sea turtle species are endangered
doh.. why would there be such a question as to how many endangered mammals are in the sea when not all creatures in the sea have been discovered yet!
What do baby sea lions do?
Sea Lions are gray
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.
They got their name from the mane of coarse long hair around their face.
