- Title Seal-ed Shut: Pregnant Sea Lion Blocks Off Family Home’s Front Door
- Summary An unexpected guest arrived at the front door in the form of a pregnant sea lion resting and relaxing. The footage was taken by Anika Ayson on December 17th, at their home in Dunedin, New Zealand. Anika woke up and nearly tripped over the animal after not seeing the pregnant mammal on her doorstep. Multiple clips show the position the pregnant sea lion chose to relax, directly blocking Anika’s front door. Members of Anika’s family had to use other doors to get out of the house due to the soon-to-be mother sea lion. The breeding season for the rare New Zealand sea lion takes place from November to mid-January. The Department of Conservation was contacted regarding the ongoing incident from the pregnant guest.
