Sake is our oldest female California
sea lion, and probably the best-trained sea lion in the world.
She was born in 1987 and came to us from the Scripps Institution
of Oceanography with minimal training experience when she was
a little under two-years old. Before Scripps, she was stranded
and rehabilitated at Sea World in San Diego. She participates
in our research studies, educational demos, and open ocean work. |
In 1998 we
were honored to have Sake selected as the official mascot
of the U.S. Pavilion for the World Exposition in Lisbon,
Portugal. Sake is very energetic, and is fast both in
learning and in movement. She loves to perform for an
audience and will do anything to get attention, especially
from her trainers. |
