Their representative had A LOT to say I can tell you that much 👀

Excuse me if my sea lion speak is rusty, but to keep the translation short the sea lions want space to rest and give birth. Their species rep says that it’s the human with the title of mayor that needs to keep nosy people from harassing their kind every day. In return, they will still be ambassadors of the ocean, help build respect for wildlife, and continue to be as cute as possible if the humans can enforce better management of the cove🙂‍↕️

📖 To give you some context, my friend and I were filming when we were photo (video?) bombed by this playful raft of sea lions who approached us.

🫱🏻‍🫲🏽 There’s so much more I could get into about this, but the matter of the fact is that before La Jolla cove is overrun by people disrespecting our wildlife, it must be protected before we can create policies to coexist. And before someone else goes viral for kicking another sea lion in the face 😒

👏 The committee passed a notion to send a letter to parks and rec requesting keeping the cove opened, but to close the stairs during pupping season, allowing only swimmers to enter!

🧪 Diane Kane’s working group is inviting local scientists and citizens to document and acquire solid numbers to support the protection of our pinnipeds. Email [email protected] for info!

🐟 The overpopulation of sea lions is a myth. Their numbers will only reach a point that will level off as environmental resources will allow which naturally caps population size, specifically their food (look up carrying capacity).

🫧Sending you light and bubble magic your way 😉🫧

💖 My absolute favorite part of performing as a mermaid is looking back at clips of both kids and adults unable to contain themselves jumping with excitement! Whether it’s their first or fifth time visiting us, their absolute joy warms my heart and can even be felt through the glass 💙

💖 I’m excited to be performing with again in Mississippi at the end of September! Swim by and say shello 👋🏽

🌊🌎🫱🏻‍🫲🏽Coexistence is possible🫱🏻‍🫲🏽🌎🌊

🌊 This was taken in a marine protected area in San Diego, California. A place that has been heavily debated about - whether city officials should close the beach to humans or chase away the sea lions who birth pups.
The uptick of unknowing tourists has increased harassment of sea lions and risk of injury for both parties on this particular beach, creating conflict from all sides.
💡 The answer still and always will be: enforcement by authorities that will protect BOTH humans and sea lions without the need to close the beach. has clearly stated management of the site is a city issue. So why not create sustainable revenue and a positive platform that tickets visitors at the entrance of the beach, educates tourists before they get too close to the sea lions, or fine those that disregard federal law? More jobs, more public education, more preservation of nature.

➡️ Coexistence is possible - we just need to see that it is.

⚠️ Note: The California sea lion is protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. Please do not approach them and let them come to you, any interaction is on their terms. Please do not crowd or approach these animals ESPECIALLY on land. Approaching a resting sea lion pup can lead to abandonment by the mother.
