  1. Sea lions are carnivores and mostly eat different types of fish and some invertebrates like squids and octopuses. Depending on which part of the world they come from, the fishes that they consume can include: Pollock, salmon, herring, capelin, flounder, sculpins, Pacific cod and rockfish. A sea lion can eat as much as five to eight percent of its bodyweight in a day. This works out to around seven to sixteen kilograms or fifteen to thirty five pounds each day. Sea lions usually do not drink large quantities of sea water as most of their requirement is met by the fish they eat. Males fast during the breeding season which takes place ten to fifteen days after the pups are born. Sea lions live to an average age of twenty years, with females generally outliving males.
