Awww! Sea lions are related to dogs, hence the friendliness, barking and adorable personalities. Plus the gratitude to let him escape somethings that want him for lunch! What a sweet little animal. God bless you for rescuing him!
Their closest living relatives are bears, weasels, raccoons and skunks, but they are in the suborder Caniformia along with dogs/wolves and other Canidae 👌🏼
How how cute & sweet they are . Goes to show how much feelings they have . Was so awesome to see . Reminds me of my cat how it was rubbing on him to show affection . Lol . I love videos like this .
Many years ago at a California beach campground my children and I were sitting on a small incline close to the ocean. All of a sudden a little blonde-furred baby seal slides out of the water and up the incline right onto my lap. He/she nuzzled me and my kids went and got some tuna for it. We played and snuggled a while then took it back down to the water and said bye :) I will never forget it.
What an incredible thing for you and your family to be a part of and a wonderful memory for your kids. So many animals are much more intelligent than we can comprehend. I envy you!
That used to be commonplace at the Harbors in Southern California for many years. My friends and I used to go down to the docks to visit what the boaters called their regular mascot. They called him Sammy. The Sea was the Sweeteest and most friendly wild creature I had ever had the privilege to spend time with and even pet. That day you had was such a blessing for you and your family. So happy for you that you had this wonderful experience in your life👭🤗💖
What an awesome video. Amazing little critters. We think they are cute and maybe they feel the same way about us. I learned something about the animals that we share on our beautiful blue planet. I hope to see more.
"Their cognitive abilities would seem to be much greater than we had otherwise thought" I hear this about a bewildering array of creatures more and more. It would seem that as science and our understanding improves, we need to accept that we have hugely underestimated the intelligence of almost everything around us.
What I love about your statement is: a) anyone who bothers to truly observe the world can see it’s true, b) folks who tend to believe in fairy tales tend to call you ‘arrogant’ for suggesting it’s true, and c) those same believers in fairy tales typically fail, in true Dunning Kruger fashion, to grasp just how arrogant they themselves are.
I deeply appreciate this eye opening lesson on the seal family ... and recounting those wonderful exchanges on the boats ... being housebound, I love traveling through the generous spirit behind many of the videos on TH-cam❣️
Posting appreciated. ALL living beings are capable of feeling & providing JOY. I hope ALL people VALUE this lovely planet & all the inhabitants of it. Peace to all.
So true. You never know when an asteroid or a comet is going to hit the earth and we'll ALL get wiped out, just like the dinosaurs did. We've been damned lucky so far. It isn't going to last forever. Make every minute count.
A fine, warm reply, Martha. Incidentally, the last girl I talked with, and she gave me a goodbye kiss, before I left for Navy Boot Camp was named Martha. She too had a warm, sweet heart.😍
I rescued a sea Lion when Living in Mexico, the poor little thing was up on the beach and some horrible kids were hitting it with sticks, e got him back to the house, it was not far, he was mad kept hissing at us. He was in a bad way covered in barnacles! I called a resort not far from us the y had a sea Lion program there, and they agreed to come get him and rehabilitate him. We named him Barney, because of the barnacles. Never found out what happend to Barney though. ☹️
Lisa, animals that are covered with barnacles are usually very sick and don't have much time left to live... especially when this happens to turtles. I've never heard of it happening to a seal before! Poor thing... so glad you tried to help. People will remove the barnacles which sometimes causes more damage to the animal than before. I don't know how "Barney" was helped, but I hope he made it! Brought tears to my eyes thinking about those horrible kids hitting it with sticks when it was stranded on land. How mean can people of any age be sometimes!
Very informative videos! Really liked the encounter of the seals joining the people boats. Gives me hope that people can be friends with the sea lions. Would love to have had that experience.
You just taught an older person something she’d never thought of before! Wow! I never knew there was any difference in kinds of seals, and why. Awesome!
That first story was so sweet! Smart for the people to NOT wanna touch this lil sea lion..but he wasn't havin any of that 😉 he wanted cuddles and scratches,and he was gonna get exactly what he wanted 😂 lol
Thank you. Neat video. At Santa Cruz Beach, a baby seal swam to my three year old son, but all I saw was his fin up in the air and I thought it was a shark. I ran over to my son, just in time to see the baby want to play with him. My son just graduated from USF in animal biology and works with animals now.
Animals can feel the energy field of humans. The more loving they are the closer the wildlife is coming to them or the more scary they become for the human.
Yes you are right, animals can feel that love frequently within you, I’ve had a few amazing encounters with animals and native birds even, when you know they can feel that loving genuine vibe and start to trust you it’s such an amazing feeling.
Great video!! Really like these kind of videos!! Animals are very intelligent. Killer whales are truly amazing! That seal was absolutely adorable. I just watched a video where a family started to feed some Crow's and the Crow's would thank the family with treats. These Crow's were bringing them rings, watches, and even a camera lens that the mother had dropped a few miles away.
I live in Ca and any where there is a pier you will find a bunch of them. In big cities they see people all the time. Most will interact in some way. They are all not all friendly though. Some will growlif you get too close. I live 2 hours away from Monterey bay where otters live and you can quite often see them at right locations. February- April whales migrate through. I know you guys have dolphins (and other cool animals we don't have), if you're lucky you may see some. They're more prevalent down south.
Yes, but to see that baby sea lion loving on that girl was crazy! I have Been face to face with full-size Sea lions, and I’ll tell you right now, they are powerful and they will eat you just like a bear! Hence the name Sea lion
Great stories. Love how the first seal seemed to just want a cuddle. Makes me wonder if it had been rescued at some point. Hopefully it will always find humans willing to oblige.
What amazing experiences for those very lucky people. I once had 2 dolphins swimming next to the sailboat I piloting the boat. That was amazing but, as far as I’m concerned, nothing in comparison to these beautiful creatures interacting with humans.
That is cool. I would have been wary at first too. If you get bit, you can bet it would definitely hurt. Seals are learning to get on boats when orcas come around. I’ve seen another video where one did that to get away from them, but they did get her baby. It was sad.
It's pretty incredible that a wild animal chooses us to protect it from another wild animal. It's happened up here a few times. Same kind of thing the seal gets in the boat to avoid the Orca. Amazing.
Beautiful and heart warming story, love it. It was also educational. Seals are so cute. I'm thankful for given the experience to be close to couple of seals at Galapagos Island, it was wonderful. Thank you for sharing this video.💕🥰
Very interesting and informative.I’ve watched so many docos on seals before and I’ve never heard anything about their evolution ,who knew bears and weasels are the ancestors of seals.WOW
like you never once have i heard about the differences or that they had evolved from different ancestors, normaly watch these types of video just for a feel good but this one had a plus side of some knowledge
Not sure they are correct about that ! I think when God created, He created bears as bears, seals as seals, and weazels as weazels. They may have simalarities, but they are not the same or 'evolved'.
I have seen 150 to 200 killer whales at a time in Alaska while commercial fishing for years. The big males would stay way back in the pack and the females would bring their young up, after they made sure it was safe, and expose them for treats. What an amazing planet that God has placed us on. He truly loves us!
Awe, so cute, my cat does that head butting trick when she is being affectionate. That baby seal would have been lunch for the Orcas. We have two paintings done by some sea lions.

Oh my! How wonderful! What an awesome family time that was! Bet the little guy had stories to tell himself. Thank you for sharing. God bless¡🙏🐾😍🌬️
All seals are very smart. So much so, I always call them dogs of the sea. They bark like and growl like dogs too. I love them so. Beautiful Animals💗
All God's creatures big and small are wonderful in their own ways. Thanks for sharing this heart warming video.
One of the best informative videos you’ve posted to the point I’d let little children learn from this thanks
They are Beautiful creatures! Awesome video! Thank you! ❤
What an awesome video. Amazing little critters. We think they are cute and maybe they feel the same way about us. I learned something about the animals that we share on our beautiful blue planet. I hope to see more.
The first sea lion on the boat. Incredible, gentle and charming. You want to be part of it. It's so emotional! ❤️ they're ALL wonderful 😘
They are all just perfect ❤️💋
Hi Jane 👋, how are you?
I L❤️VE SEALS & SEA LIONS!!! They are SOOO ADORABLE? How could anyone harm them?? The hunts MUST TOTALLY BE OUTLAWED FOREVER!!!
That sea loin may have been rescued as a baby, and remembered humans being kind..awww
