Earlier, a video had gone viral on the internet, showing how a Galapagos sea lion reclaimed its territory by heaving itself up the ramp of a beach resort.
Then, the lion jumps into a rectangular pool and is seen swimming graciously before thrusting itself out of water and heading straight towards a man lounging on a chair.
Sea lions are known to be playful, sleek, acrobatic and curious species that exude confidence in everything they do. While these apparent goofy pinnipeds are not aggressive towards humans, they exhibit a territorial behaviour and are possessive about their own territory if one dares to wander around their habitat.
Sea lions belong to the Otariidae family, which also includes fur seals and are known to consume up to 8 percent of their body weight in a single meal which is about 6.8-15.9 kg.
