NATIONAL SEAL SANCTUARY - ANDRÉ - CALIFORNIA SEA LION

André - California Sea Lion

André, a California Sea Lion, used to be housed at Chessington, but they were looking to re-home him, and got in contact with the Sanctuary. We made preparation for his arrival and on Tuesday 5th May 2009, André arrived at Gweek. Noito and Diego, the Patagonian Sea Lions, were very intrigued to see a new sea lion entering their enclosure. André quickly moved passed them and into the water for his first dive into the Cornish water, he was quickly followed by the other two. Luckily all went well and these three are the best of friends. Diego and André are at the moment competing for the title of noisiest resident at the Sanctuary, and in the lead is André. Click here to see a selection of photos of André.
