A tourist pleaded not guilty to charges accusing him of hurling a coconut-sized rock at an endangered Hawaiian monk seal
The Aquarium of the Pacific is offering up-close experiences with sharks, rays, seals, sea lions and penguins.
Some people say seals are actually water dogs and a video shared by a diver may prove it to be true.
A good Samaritan and two California Highway Patrol officers are being credited with saving the life of a sea lion pup from the middle of the 710 Freeway in Long Beach.
"Sometimes my #DiveBuddies can be a bit 'clingy'," he joked on Twitter.
Diver had no clue what this seal was up to, and the underwater experience left him breathless.
