Case File

Steller sea lions are absolutely huge. As the largest species of sea lion in the world, they can grow to be the size of a minivan! So how do animals this big simply disappear? What can wipe out 85% of their population? Scientists in Canada and the United States are investigating many theories as they try to figure out what’s going on. The Vancouver Aquarium plays a crucial role in helping test out some of those theories.
