Amiable and Enthusiastic
These charming pinnipeds are agile, sleek and energetic with an eagerness of spirit that's irresistibly compelling. The sea lion can be described as a combination of the dog and dolphin personalities - part carnivore, part sea dweller; it is well groomed with an attractive mind and body. Like the dolphin, sea lions are pleasure connoisseurs who can be quite lazy when it comes to putting in a solid day's work. With the dog's loyalty and generosity, it manages to charm everyone with its effervescence. The sea lion’s irrepressible nature craves the spotlight and they enjoy performing, telling stories and hogging the attention of their large group of friends.
Sea Lions Are Profligate
Sea lions have little respect for the value of money, for even though they have the talent to accumulate vast wealth, they're much more likely to be found at the beach. Alas, the lack of money doesn't discourage the sea lion from those spending sprees that leave it in debt, and saving for the future is never a priority. Sea lions are forever emptying the penny jar or mooching a few bucks to buy a tuna sandwich.
The sea lion's agile mind is exercised by long hours of debate on issues of philosophy. Their lazy dispositions, however, can result in conversations that lack substance and logical grounding, but they are curious about the universe and pay particular attention to numerology and astrology. Their cheerful dispositions belie a hot tempered core. When reacting assertively, their attack comes in the form of a sharp, barked retort and their slippery personas provide sufficient defense in the event of a counter-attack.
Sea Lions in the Workplace
Their smooth personalities are well suited to a wide range of sales positions. Whether selling real estate or motor vehicles, they are skillful, enthusiastic and sincere. Their straightforward, genuine desire to help others shines through in their work and they are instinctively trusted by their coworkers. However, their careers suffer from lack of motivation, for they are prone to rest on their laurels.
An aggressive streak serves sea lions well in jobs that require physical and emotional strength, and they are a good fit for careers as police officers, air traffic controllers, paramedics or lifeguards. As entrepreneurs with high levels of self-esteem, sea lions confidently plunge into risky business ventures but this confidence is not always warranted. All too often they find themselves in both financial and social trouble although their natural buoyancy always helps them keep their head above water.
Sea Lions in the Wild
Sea lions are one of the few land mammals that have returned to the sea to eke out a living. Supremely well adapted for life in a rocky, unpredictable environment, they have even evolved "rubber" ribs made from soft cartilage to protect them when swimming around rocks in high seas.
Like their dolphin companions, sea lions have developed a rudimentary sonar system but their eyesight is the preferred hunting tool. It is the California sea lion that is commonly seen performing in circuses and animal parks, and the creature's intelligence and social expertise make it a perennial crowd favorite.
