Camp Pendleton hosts San Diego County's first sea lion return of the year at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., January 31, 2025, highlighting a collaborative effort between the SeaWorld San Diego Rescue Team and the Camp Pendleton Environmental Security Department. This partnership successfully facilitated the safe return of two female sea lions, an adult and pup, to the ocean. The base's flat, sandy areas provide an ideal environment for sea lion releases, while restricted access to the training beaches helps minimize human interference, ensuring a smooth transition for the sea lions to their natural habitat. Camp Pendleton is home to 19 species of federally listed endangered plants and animals, offering a vital biome along the most pristine and ecologically intact stretch of coastline between San Diego and Los Angeles.
