At the Milwaukee Zoo last
week, we attended the sea lion and seal show. Who knew what little
personalities they have. Just like our devoted dogs, these sea mammals wanted
to please their trainers and show off for strangers.
To me, it is pretty obvious how
to tell the seals from the sea lions, but the trainers shared these
differences. The sea lion has earflaps, while the seal has earholes. Also the
sea lion has long foreflippers, and their hindflippers rotate underneath them
so that they can walk on land. The seal however has short foreflippers with
long claws and hindflippers that stay straight out. They move on land by
wiggling.
I don’t know. I would say
that the sea lion is sleek and mobile, while the seal is – well - blubbery. Are
the experts just trying not to hurt somebody’s feelings?
