Zoo Gets Ready for Sea Lion Pup
The Pittsburgh Zoo is getting ready to welcome a new addition.
A sea lion named Zoey is pregnant and is expected to give birth this summer. Zoey and another female, Maggie, have been mating with a male named Seahawk.
The females were born at the Indianapolis Zoo and came to Pittsburgh in the late 1990s. Seahawk came from a rescue organization in 2006 after he was found orphaned off the California coast.
Zoo officials will closely monitor Zoey to ensure she bonds with the pup, which will be the first pup born at the Pittsburgh zoo.
