❤️ Pepper's successful rehabilitation journey was only made possible because of supporters like YOU! Pepper is a female harbor seal pup who was rescued from Manhattan Beach on June 6 after repeated reports of people getting too close. Pinniped Patrol volunteers Myriam and Jackie set up cones around Pepper so that she could rest safely on the beach until expert responder Adam Fox arrived to rescue her. Initially, Pepper was tube-fed a mixture of mashed-up fish, but she quickly transitioned to a diet of whole fish. After more than six weeks in care, this spicy pup doubled in size and returned to her ocean home alongside fellow harbor seal pup Shyenne.

🏥 How big do you think an adult male California sea lion can get?

They can weigh up to 700 pounds and be up to 7.5 feet long! You can also tell a subadult/adult male from a female by their pronounced forehead crests crowned with tufts of blonde or lighter hair. Because of our generous supporters, 11,000+ marine mammals, ranging from tiny pups to fully grown adults, have received care from our team of experts!
