The Vancouver Aquarium: Steller Sea Lion Encounter

The Steller Sea Lion Encounter was the second of four animal encounters we enjoyed at the Vancouver Aquarium. Again, we began with an educational briefing, followed by food preparations.

Then we got to feed and interact with the sea lions.

These sea lions went crazy for fish. We went crazy for sea lions.

We went so crazy that we vowed to return for more animal encounters. This was the end of our first weekend in Vancouver, but it wasn't long before we went back.

  2. I'm not going to lie, I love sea lions from a distance, but I'm a little afraid of them when they get close. The mister surfs with them and says they're friendly, but I see those teeth.

  3. This is now a must visit place for the bumblebees! I can't imagine how cool it would be to pet a sea lion and feed them from your hand!

  5. btw, i went there a few years back for an investigator meeting & they closed it down for our private event. it was pretty awesome strolling around, munching on delicious food & then a fantastic dinner right next to the beluga whale tank.

    such a spectacular place!

  6. Once again you make me jealous...I guess I will go cuddle my nearly sea-lion dog, Mr.Jiggles...he is big and round like a sea lion at least.
