SEA-LlONS POPULAR AT zoo
Perform Wonderful Feats of Diving
and Fish-catching az Feed
ing Time.

London.-Of all the animals in the
geological gardens, none are more pop
ular than the sea-lions. especially at
their feeding time, when they perform
wonderful feats of diving and fish
catching. Their appetites are ap.
parently Unsuitable. and they are ready
to give a special performance at any
moment The problem of feeding
them during the present time, when
the fish supply frcm the North sea
may be cut off. IS likely to be a Sc
rious one. When racing through the
water, the sea-lion progresses by a
series of long semi-dives of a very
snake-like character, and it has been
suggested that the appearances of the
'sea-serpent" may be due to this ami
nal. The sea-lions belong to the Ota-
riidae or cared seals, which include
from the true seals and walruses by
having a small external ear. Their
mind limbs also are turned forwards
and outwards, and are Of greater serv-
ice than in the other groups Of seals.
