How Sea Lions Capture Gulls

In capturing gulls the sea lion dis.
plays no little skill and cunning When
in pursuit of gull, it dives deeply un-
der water and swims some distance
from where it disappeared; then, rising
cautiously, it exposes the tip of its nose
along the surface, at the same time
giving it rotary motion. The unwary
bird on the wing, seeing the object
near by, alights to catch it. while the
sea lion at the same moment settles be-
meath the waves. and at one bound
with extended jaws seizes its screaming
prey and instantly devours it.-Scien-
tiic American.
