Galapagos Sea Lion. Took this one during an early morning boot excursion. Very playful animals but we always had to be careful if "daddy" was in the water as well. #crab #Zalophuswollebaeki #nature #galapagos #photooftheday #beach #GalapagosSeaLion #naturephotography

The Galapagos Sea Lion is found almost exclusively in the Galapagos Islands and is it’s own species. They have the ability to dive to 600 meters and stay underwater for 10 minutes. The males can get up to 4x larger than females. The dominant males tend to defend a stretch of beach where females haul out rather than a particular harem as with other sea lion species. Their natural predators are orcas and sharks but their main threat is the El Nino effect which devastates the other marine species the sea lions depend on. There is also a threat from domestic dogs which spread disease to the sealion colonies and plastic pollution. This photo was taken on Santa Fe Island, Galapagos, Ecuador in August 2023. #galapagossealion #sealion #zalophuswollebaeki #mammal #marinemammal #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #yourshotphotographer #animal #conservation #conservenature #protectnature #protectwildlife #protectourenvironment #galapagos #ecuador

Beautiful Welsh Countryside 12.8.23 and Female Sealion 12.8.23 @ 3:19pm - 3:35pm #wales #sealion #zalophuswollebaeki SCIENTIFIC NAME Zalophus wollebaeki Sea lions are pinnipeds characterized by external ear flaps, long foreflippers, the ability to walk on all fours, short and thick hair, and a big chest and belly. Together with the fur seals, they make up the family Otariidae, eared seals. The sea lions have six extant and one extinct species (the Japanese sea lion) in five genera. Their range extends from the subarctic to tropical waters of the global ocean in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, with the notable exception of the northern Atlantic Ocean.[1] They have an average lifespan of 20–30 years. A male California sea lion weighs on average about 300 kg (660 lb) and is about 2.4 m (8 ft) long, while the female sea lion weighs 100 kg (220 lb) and is 1.8 m (6 ft) long. The largest sea lions are Steller's sea lions, which can weigh 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) and grow to a length of 3.0 m (10 ft). Sea lions consume large quantities of food at a time and are known to eat about 5–8% of their body weight (about 6.8–15.9 kg (15–35 lb)) at a single feeding. Sea lions can move around 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) in water and at their fastest they can reach a speed of about 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph).[2] Three species, the Australian sea lion, the Galápagos sea lion and the New Zealand sea lion, are listed as endangered.

Galapagos sea lion (Zalophus wollebaeki) This species is native to the Galapagos Islands, however sightings have been made in some areas of continental Ecuador. This coastal mammal is generally playful, so it constantly interacts with humans, not the case with adult males, which are territorial and dominant. They play an important role in the ecosystem since they transport marine nutrients to terrestrial ecosystems, the same ones that are found in high concentrations in the shore plants. 📷@paolo_mars _________________________________Lobo marino de Galápagos (Zalophus wollebaeki) Esta especie es nativa de las Islas Galápagos, no obstante se han realizado avistamientos en algunas zonas del Ecuador Continental. Este mamífero costero por lo general es de carácter juguetón, por lo que, interactua constantemente con los humanos, no siendo así con los machos adultos que son territoriales y dominantes. Desempeñan un papel importante en el ecosistema ya que transportan nutrientes marinos a ecosistemas terrestres, los mismos que se encuentran en altas concentraciones en las plantas de las orillas. __________________________________ #galapagosislands #islasgalapagos #ecuador #sealion #sealife #zalophuswollebaeki #lobomarino #wildplanet #wildlifephotography #seaphotography #neoselva #sealions #sealionsofinstagram

Happy sunday! After many busy and challenging days, I arrived in Berlin on Friday and have finally found some time to relax this weekend. My luggage hasn't made it (yet 🙃) but I try to keep a positive attitude and stay calm like this young sea lion on the beach, one early morning in June on Isla Isabela. 📸 Galapagos sea lion (Zalophus wollebaeki) #sealionsofinstagram #sealion #zalophuswollebaeki #galapagossealion #galapagossealions #galapagoswildlife #galápagos #sleepinganimals

Hola Lobito 💙 The Galapagos sea lion (Zalophus wollebaeki) is the most agile and playful creature I have met underwater. (Manatees can be pretty playful, too, but they just wouldn't keep up with that pace!) They're closely related to the california sea lion, however, a German study revealed in 2007 that they are indeed seperate species that have split about 2.3 million years ago. #sealion #galapagossealion #galapagosislands #zalophuswollebaeki #sealions #lobomarino #lobitos

Heute ist Endangered Species Day! 🐾🌿 Am dritten Freitag im Mai machen Menschen rund um die Welt auf den Schutz bedrohter und gefährdeter Arten aufmerksam. 🌍 Auch wir starten daher mit einer gefährdeten Art in unser #WildesWochenende. Der Galápagos-Seelöwe 🦭 (Zalophus wollebaeki) ist eine Ohrenrobbe, die auf den abgelegenen Galápagos-Inseln heimisch ist. Norman aus unserem Ehrenamts-Team konnte sie bei seinem Besuch in bester 🧜-Pose ablichten. ☺️ Die Seelöwen sind Menschen gegenüber nicht besonders scheu und man findet sie auch mal schlafend auf einer Parkbank oder Sonnenliege. Doch der Schein trügt, denn auch sie werden auf der Roten Liste der IUCN als stark gefährdet geführt. 😔 Galápagos-Seelöwen gelten als eine der Arten, die empfindlich auf Umweltstörungen reagieren und frühzeitig anzeigen, dass Ökosysteme aus dem Gleichgewicht geraten sind. Der starke Rückgang der Populationen seit den 1980er Jahren könnte daher ein Zeichen für eine Störung der marinen Ökosysteme auf Galápagos sein. Ein Aspekt, der gerade noch weiter erforscht wird. 🌊 📷 @norman_schoene #galapagosseeloewe #galapagos #sealion #zalophuswollebaeki #endangered #ocean #wildlife #consevation #wildlifephotography #nepadawildlife

Al evolucionar lejos de las personas y los depredadores, sus animales no han aprendido a tener miedo. A young Galápagos sea lion peacefully resting on the beach after a meal. Fearlessness is a common trait of wildlife in Galapagos.

Fieldwork dream team 🥹 We are now officially halfway through our field season and marked it with a little photoshoot 🙌 Our work with the sea lions continues, and after finding Wilhelmina today, we can celebrate 100% pup survival from the fall, which is very unusual 🌊🦁 A major part of the work done here focussed on the long term study of individuals. Therefore, we cover the whole island three times everyday checking all tagged individuals, writing them and their behaviour down. We note what they are doing, who they are interacting with and in which way. With this data it’s possible to follow individual sea lions on a daily and yearly scale 🦭 I’m extremely grateful for this experience and for the wonderful team, I have shared it with! @el_caillou @ppibaque .

Caamaño 2023 For those who didn’t know, I’m currently in the Galapagos for field work. We are working on the Galapagos sea lions, testing their behaviour and following the pups from this year 🦭🦁 We are a total of 4 people on the island, all partaking in the project. We sleep in our own little tents and have a common tent for work and cooking. ⛺️ The experience as a whole is amazing, and I’m both excited about the week and a half to come and sad, that it will be the last time on Caamaño. Hopefully, this won’t be the last time 🙏 . . . . #galapagos #galapagossealion #sealion #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #fieldwork #biologist #biologistinthefield #nature #sunrise #beautiful #travel #travelphotography #traveller #biolog #seal #atrejseeratleve #søløve #zalophuswollebaeki #leonmarino #fotografia #galapagosislands

No sé si s'acaben de decidir sobre si prefereixen el medi aquàtic o el terrestre, però els lleons marins són els reis de les platges de l'illa de San Cristóbal. Als vespres, els mascles criden estrepitosament per reunir totes les seves femelles fora de l'aigua i evitar topar amb els taurons, els seus principals depredadors. Hem visitat l'illa en plena època de cria i alletament, que ens ha proporcionat moments molt tendres i alhora còmics. Malgrat que són cuquíssims, és essencial respectar-los i sobretot, no tocar les cries. Crec que no hi ha res més desolador que veure una cria abandonada i rebutjada per la seva tribu 💔 🎥📸 @sergipurcet #Ecuador #ParqueNacionalGalápagos #SanCristóbal #Zalophuswollebaeki #SeaLion #LleonsMarins

While we rested after snorkeling, this Galapagos sea lion walked over to me using its flippers. He stopped to pose for at least 15 minutes as I drew him out in my sketchbook, we connected, I imagined, saying hello telepathically. When the sea lion emerges from the surf, its coat is deep black like the lava rocks, becoming complete camouflage, then it dries into a gorgeous chocolate brown. The kids were playing in the surf with the baby sea lion pups, how adorable it all was. It's unreal how agile these creatures are as we witnessed a bunch of sea lions playing along side of us, nibbling at our flippers while we were snorkeling. Underneath us, passed a sea turtle and when we returned to land, the others asked if we had seen the shark, which I didn't, and they said that they saw it pass right by us. . . . .

It's unreal how agile these creatures are as we witnessed a bunch of sea lions playing along side of us, nibbling at our flippers while we were snorkeling. Underneath us, passed a sea turtle and when we returned to land, the others asked if we had seen the shark, which I didn't, and they said that they saw it pass right by us. . . . .

He stopped to pose for at least 15 minutes as I drew him out in my sketchbook, we connected, I imagined, saying hello telepathically.
