We've got this story today about a renegade sea lion, removed from its salmon-eating perch on the Columbia, that died under anesthesia at Point Defiance Zoo during an exam.
A wildlife biologist said the critter's weight might've led to its demise.
“It was extremely obese. Very, very large. Its sheer size and mass may have contributed to its death,” he said.
The sea lion weighed in at 1,454 pounds. That's a lot of chinook. It's sad that we live in a world in which a sea lion gets in trouble for being too good at being a sea lion.
Besides, salmon are delicious.
We'll miss you, B-198.
That's the question that someone called to ask today.
He was thinking it was either the second of March or the fifth of March.
The editor responded with a straight face: "That would be the fifth of May."
Cinco. De Mayo.
