La Loberia

---

After two days of lectures and sunbathing on the beach we took another field trip. Today we went to La Loberia. La Loberia is a nesting colony of sea lions. We went during low tide and collected any kind of sea creatures we could catch which was mostly mollusks despite trying to catch a crab. There were lots of sea lions that we could get really close to. Sadly one of the sea lions had a fisherman’s hook caught in its’ mouth. This would not be the last injured sea lion we would see. Others we saw had been attacked by a shark, and entangled in a fishing line with many deeps cuts. We also saw many marine iguanas and birds.
