Sea lions have special whisker-like structures on their faces called vibrissae. The vibrissae are filled with nerves so that the sea lion can feel with them, and surrounded by muscles so that the sea lion can move them. The sea lion can use them to balance and hold a ball, much like a human balancing something on his/her fingertips.
