Saint Louis Zoo California sea lions are reporting to “Spring Training” on March 16 for the Sea Lion Show at the Judy and Jerry Kent Family Sea Lion Sound. The shows run daily through March 31.
Sea lion care staff are working with these intelligent pinnipeds on high jumps, flipper walks, high dives, powerful swimming and other acrobatic and athletic behaviors. Throughout the show, staff explain sea lion behavior and positive-reinforcement training, animal fun facts and the need for conserving the sea lions' ocean habitat.
