A couple in California found a baby sea lion a fair ways inland working his way along the road. Their quick actions protected him so that he could be safely rescued.

After reading the article I realize that they are having a problem with baby sea lions this year. For some reason they are not with their mothers and they need to be rescued and cared for until they are old enough to manage alone.

So our little lost sea lion is one of many. He was in serious condition though at 30 pounds instead of the 80 pounds he should be. I am sure he will gain weight and thrive now that he is being fed regularly.
