Taking such photos of the New Zealand sea lion was possible thanks to using the services of a pleasure boat which took me on a cruise through fjords of New Zealand’s southern Island. Sea lions, which were accustomed to pleasure boats, were basking in the sun not paying any attention to our ship. Males of the sea lion can reach up to 450 kilograms in weight, while the females are much smaller and can weigh up to 165 kilograms. They have been strictly protected as an endangered species since 1890.
