They heard about the good SF social programs
I remember listening to these babies when I was a kid. I loved watching them and learning from them first hand while doing 2nd and 3rd watch. Most were sleeping, but when the moon was full they’d stay up a bit longer and I felt like I had company. 😅
Wow, I love sea lions ❤❤❤
Went during Christmas time and there were so few. Glad to see them back in numbers!
Boy can they make the noise 🤣 👍👍
I lived just east of SF in the early 80s and loved going to Pier 39. But I don't remember seeing any sea lions.
They only started showing up there in late 1989.
So that's where the salmon went.😂😂😂
Also where the Men in Grey Suits will be likely🦈.
I saw also in San Diego there soo cute 🥰 love animals!
I used to make trips to Pier 39 to watch them. I love them, they are fun and enjoyable to watch. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Word must be out about the high vacancy rate in SF ...
Clever. Now they just need to learn how to use the elevator so they can take up the high rises and pent-suits lol.
One of the last worthwhile sites
Wow that's amazing
"I AM the walrus, cuckoo-catchu" 😻🐾
🙏🌍 Peace and LOVE for ONE and ALL 🕊❤🔥
🎉💓💓💓
The fish population must be pretty good now
What about all the DUNG they're gonna leave🤣🤣🤣
Apparently the US Seal Team was having tryouts.
Them Homeless Sea Lions 😅
Since when did they put up that ferris wheel?
since APEC
I'm lazy what is apec
Wow!
You can smell them for miles 😝
U must live down hunters point...
I live 2 miles away and can never smell them, but I can occasionally hear them.
@@jessegpresley U have to be down wind I guess ...like hunters point.
@@michaelwells7348 no just go to where they are lying on the dock and take a deep breath
@@ricwatt U can’t ... Duh. they are federally protected ...
And the real question right there why are the fish from somewhere else coming in closer?
The sharks are gonna be creeping on ocean beach.. I’ve never seen so many seals in Sacramento, I see 5-10 a day they’re everywhere
I wonder if it has anything to do with the whale migrations.
If it is only temporary, they are passing through!❤
Semi-aquatic migrants?
@@mdmoz1777 😆
A favorite seal feeding spot, under the Oceanside Pier near San Diego, has been overrun with firefighting boats. Time for a vacation in the San Francisco Bay?
It came to pass re: strange events
I don’t like the way this women said “anchovies “. Ridiculous.
Born & raised in Marin County , Calif 🌉 .just be careful visitors , when you come to visit of smash & grabbers .. 🤔 hmm .. I think so many sea lions gathering because of less people / shops closed down .
Follow the food source. And where there are sea lions there will also be…sharks.
Earthquake
Probably some sharks nearby 😅
Smells good there
❤
Co cool ❤
It’s smell
They know nobody will bother them at Pier 39. Cause pier 39 is well locals know, boring 😊
Sea lion season open.
WAtch out for the man in the white suit
They're having a whale of a good time!
Owlp owlp 👏
Stinky!
🫶🏾
More like sea dogs than lions
Yeah, but global warming or something.
It is the Tenderloin of the Sea Lions but no drugs and no open defecation. LOL! I would love to go and watch the em but Iam afraid of the violent crims, drugs use and car breakins in Fishermanw Harf. I will stay awawy.
Or fishermen’s Arrrrffff…Barrrrrf
Do they bring in the men in suits? Great white?
There a little early to vote for joe..
Cope harder, you are going to lose again silly Trumptard.
I hope the killer whales and orcas come
Yeah, hopefully they come for you 😁
@@hi-rm8us all the little peons of the world want to make their voice heard... Ork ork ork
More sea lions, less junkies, less sidewalk 💩
They know where safe & sound beside fish😁🦭beside what option? People have encroached everywhere, along coasts, remote areas, & wilderness, ... intrude & take rookeries, nursery, hatchery, & safe areas, along with habitat & biomes, disrupting & alter behaviour & relationships among food webs & ecosystem function. So those Sea Lion beasties, prolly Harbor Seals too, have no resort for sanctuary, reproduce, or find sustenance as those places were historically their preferred locations. While bear, wolf, & olther animal been extirpated, absent or waning predator populations in areas, along with watersheds & estuaries altered & impeded, so affect fisheries especially anadromous species, such as Salmon, evidently those populations are considered critical condition even with take restrictions happening, so Anchovy spawn is a meal call. Seems aware manageable coexist with people & get relatively easy meals too, when they follow the fishing tours 😁. Bears, wolves, & other animals already been extirpated, while remaining natural environment further pressured. Although not far off the coast of California, the Channel Islands archipelago & marine reserves still provide for Sea Lions, & many more populations, whales, avian species that are strictly sea birds, Elephant seals, ... Thankfully, those tremendous beasts (they do defy imagination) prefer remain remote from people & don't visit coast too often, while these conditions do allude health of marine ecosystem & other ecology, so recommend become aware then take action as possible with conserve or preserve (there are distinctions), that promote their survival. Wondering about conditions along those islands & particular sanctuaries, are they observing larger populations & crowded too? Stay safe & well.
