A San Diego 18-year-old pleaded guilty to a federal charge after he was caught on video kicking and chasing a protected sea lion at a La Jolla beach.
Chase Dekker has been photographing wildlife for nearly a decade but has never captured a shot like this. He was on a routine whale-watching boat trip last week in Monterey Bay, California, when he noticed a sea lion stuck on the nose of humpback whale.
A small California sea lion was rescued from the shoulder of a highway near San Francisco International Airport.
Apparently, the friendly little pal just wanted some fish. But once the feeding stopped, the hungry guest said "see ya."
