The Dolphin Company Announces Activities of the Sea Lion Day

Cancun, Quintana Roo on May 26th, 2022.-The Dolphin Company, the largest park operator in Latin America and the #1 swimming with dolphins company in the world, announced that will have a week of activities to commemorate the Sea Lion Day that is celebrated on May 30th of each year with the aim of making people aware of the importance of caring for this species.

Sea lions belong to the Otariidae family, they are marine mammals that differ from seals by having visible ears and four flippers that make it easier for them to walk on land; their body is full of fur and they have a pointed snout with whiskers. Factors that threaten the life of a sea lion in the wild are pollution, lack of food, destruction of their habitats, and predators such as killer whales and various species of sharks.

“Sea lions are an essential part of The Dolphin Company‘s family of marine mammals. Due to the enormous empathy they generate in our guests and visitors, they are invariably strong ambassadors of wildlife marine mammal populations. Currently, our family is made up of more than 40 beautiful specimens of sea lions of different species, such as the Californian and the South American, which you can meet in our Dolphin Discovery habitats in Cozumel, Isla Mujeres, Puerto Aventuras, Vallarta and Los Capes; and in other countries at Gulf World in the United States, at Aquarium in Argentina and at Zoomarine in Italy”, said Rosy Cerrillos, Corporate Manager of Marine Mammal Specialists of The Dolphin Company.

The calendar of activities that will be carried out around the Day of the Sea Wolf will be as follows:

The Sea Lion’s Day celebration joins the activities that The Dolphin Company through Loving is Educating and its various brands carries out to commemorate the world and national days of the species that live in its care, for example, the Manatee and Dolphin Day. During these dates, the company develops educational recreational activities that raise awareness in the population about interesting facts about the species, what care they require, what is affecting their home in the wild and what actions to take to prevent their extinction.
