Meet Owen the Sea Lion Pup | Seattle News

Meet Owen, the newest sea lion pup at Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium, born June 1st and now swimming with mom Eloise in the Rocky Shores exhibit — the first pup born at the zoo in 121 years. Both parents are rescues: mom found abandoned on a California beach in 2018, dad found sick and alone at another beach the same year. The zoo gave them a second chance, and now Owen’s thriving — curious, confident, and named after Owen Beach in Tacoma. Visitors can see him explore his habitat (with naps and nursing breaks for the next year) — a heartwarming tale of rescue, rebirth, and adorable marine life right in your neighborhood.
