Watch: Sea Lion Rescued off Dana Point

The finale features a sea lion cuddle party!

A crew from the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach on Wednesday rescued a sick sea lion—since nicknamed Abby—which beached herself on some rocks at Strands Beach in Dana Point.

They used a GoPro video camera to record the whole thing from a first-person angle.

The PMMC reports that Abby is now resting "with her other pen-mates/characters, McGee, Franks, TonyD, Gibbs, Ziva and Ducky."

Apparently those are all names of characters on the TV show NCIS ...

Don't miss the bonus shots of a sea lion cuddle party at the end of the video!

Really cool! Love helmet cams, some of us use when we ride endurance, really nice.

I don't understand why it had to be rescued. Don't they always hang out on the rocks? Will they all be returned to the ocean?

You have a right to live in peace in your home. I would not put up with that.

Wonder how many people even understood the first COEXIST sticker, let alone this one

Paige, I'm confused too. Just imagine how the Statue of Liberty/ Mother of Exiles must feel aboutRead More being on the sticker. Caring for our tired and poor immigrants, our tempest-tossed and huddled masses yearning to breathe free, doesn't seem to be a top priority for capitalists, after all. Maybe she should be replaced with someone else who could look like an "i"... maybe Joe the Plumber with an outstretched arm holding a plunger?

Easily as laughable as the mixed message of the effrontery of the coexist sticker... the simplestRead More explanation may be the truth.

To Cox Cable: Make sure Trumbo signs where the customer wants him to sign... Just came back fromRead More Pechanga where Mark was signing and he was signing baseballs with sharpies; not signing on the sweet spot, putting ASTERISKS (!?) after his name on jerseys; and signing helmets on the back, behind the ear flap... Don't take expensive items down there...

The City approved the plans for Del Taco many years ago. What they did not approve was the changeRead More in the color to the tiles and the change in color to the outside of the building. Those are changes to the original plans submitted by Del Taco. As the Design Review Committee pointed out, these changes are not acceptable. The City does have strict requirements regarding signs and architecture.
