A week ago, a sea lion attack on a long beach girl in water away from the California coast has asked many people why the creature demonstrated such uncertain behavior. According to several reports, in recent times, the 30 -year -old Fobe Beltran was the second such incident on the 15 -year -old Fobe Beltran at a distance of 70 miles in Southern California.
Experts claim that recent bounce in algae-inspired toxins between sea organisms may be one of the reasons for unexpected behavior among sea lions.
While it was difficult to indicate the cause of the aggression of the sea lion, it was in line with the indications seen in animals suffering from malignant algal bloom-inspired domic acid toxicosis.
Often known as red tide, it has allegedly caused disease in hundreds of animals from the coast of Southern California since late February, Mentor Informed
John Warner, CEO of Marine Mal Care Center at Los Angeles, told CNN There was something in this specific bloom that seems bad at many levels.
Mr. Warner said, “Sea lions are coming almost as long as they are stuck. But volume-wise, it is definitely the worst that we have ever seen,” said Mr. Warner.
A marine mammal center spokesperson, Giancarlo Rulie, said in an email that “sluggish, disorientation, and unusual neurological behavior (seizures/shocks)” are common basic behavior for sea lions affected by neurotoxin.
Sea lions and seal attacks are rare, they continued, cautious to keep the public at least 150 feet from animals on the beaches and to interact anytime with marine species.
In addition to Ms. Beltran, who was repeatedly bitten during the 1,000-yard swimming test for the Long Beach Junior Lifeguard Cadet Program, a surfer at Oxonard in Ventura County was bitten by a sea lion in open water on the coast on March 21. He claimed that the incident left him “shake”.
