Sea-Lions

Abstract

IT will be no doubt interesting to your readers to learn that a pair of Sea-Lions have just been added to the collection of animals in the Jardin d'Acclimatation, Paris. They are said to have been brought from the North Pacific, and are marked Otaria stelleri, but I think from their small size and long narrow heads that the species is more probably Otaria ursina, the Northern Sea Bear, whose principal habitat is the Pribylov group. They are quite young, and the female is larger than the male.
