Concerns Over Sea Lions at La Jolla Cove
News summary

A viral video captured two sea lions charging through beachgoers at La Jolla Cove, causing panic among the crowd. Experts clarified that the sea lions were not intentionally chasing people but were likely engaging in territorial disputes typical during the breeding season. This incident coincides with the peak tourist season, leading to increased interactions between humans and sea lions. Authorities and wildlife advocates emphasize the importance of maintaining a safe distance from the animals, as federal guidelines require staying 50 yards away. The La Jolla Parks and Beaches Association held a meeting to discuss potential solutions, with some advocating for better management of human-sea lion interactions rather than removing the animals. The Sierra Club Seal Society continues to push for increased protections for sea lions, especially in light of recent sea lion pup deaths attributed to human interference.
