Background: Sea-lions are large seals and are found in the Southern and Pacific Oceans. They feed exclusively upon fish, but come to shore to breed. There are many different kinds, the best known being the species from the North Pacific, which yields the fur for seal-skin jackets. In captivity they are remarkably docile and intelligent, and can be trained to perform many curious tricks.
