Edema Disease in a California Sea Lion

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1980
SUMMARY Edema disease, similar to that occurring in swine, was diagnosed in a California sea lion (Zalophus californianus). The prominent features included a thickened, edematous stomach wall and generalized fibrinoid necrosis of arterioles. A beta-hemolytic Escherichia coli, serotype 0147:Κ•:Η52, was the predominant organism isolated from the ...

Phylogeography of California and Galápagos sea lions and population structure within the California sea lion

Marine Biology, 2009
We investigate the phylogeography of California (Zalophus californianus) and Galapagos (Z. wollebaeki) sea lions and describe within-population structure for the California sea lion based on mitochondrial DNA. Fifty control-region haplotypes were found, 41 from Z. californianus and 9 from Z.

Zalophus californianus (California sea lion)

1975
Skin biopsies of the male come from the San Diego Zoo, and that of the female, from the Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago, Illinois, USA. A male karyotype with identical findings was made available by Drs. R. L. Snyder and D. A. Hungerford as well. The female karyotype is prepared with G-banding and displays bands in the X essentially similar to most mammals.

Behavioral thermoregulation in the California Sea Lion

Behavioral Biology, 1974
Behavioral thermoregulation in the California sea lion, Zalophus californianus, was studied during the summers of 1970 and 1971 on San Nicolas and San Miguel Islands, California. Zalophus has a series of behavioral responses which correlates with the rate of radiant input.

An epizootic of leptospirosis in California sea lions

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1985
SUMMARY Between May and December 1984, an epizootic of leptospirosis in California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) occurred along the west coast of the United States from Monterey County, Calif, northward to Seattle, Wash.

Lateralised swimming behaviour in the California sea lion

Behavioural Processes, 2006
Lateralised motor behaviour in the pinnipeds has been subject to little investigation. This study examined the swimming behaviour of seven zoo-housed California sea lions to determine whether they exhibited a directional bias in their motor behaviour.

COCCIDIOIDOMYCOSIS IN A CALIFORNIA SEA LION (Zalophus californianus)

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1976
Coccidioidomycosis in an adult male California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) is described. The animal was housed in a zoo in Tucson, Arizona, for approximately 5 years. This is believed to be the first reported case of coccidioidomycosis in a marine mammal.

Toxoplasmosis in a California Sea Lion (Zalophus californianus)

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1977
SUMMARY Disseminated toxoplasmosis was diagnosed in a female California sea lion that had been used in thermoregulation studies for about 4 years while housed in a small enclosure with a fresh-water pool at the University of Hawaii, Honolulu. Toxoplasma gondii was demonstrated in and around necrotic lesions of the heart and the stomach.
