A baby sea lion, often referred to as a pup, is the juvenile offspring of a sea lion, which is a marine mammal belonging to the family Otariidae. Sea lion pups are born on land and are typically nursed by their mothers for several months, developing the skills needed to survive in the ocean. They are characterized by their playful behavior, whiskered faces, and a thick layer of blubber that helps insulate them in cold waters. As they grow, they learn to hunt and socialize within their colonies.
