Oregon Coast Aquarium Sea Lion Dies in Freak Drowning

Published 04/06/2010

(Newport, Oregon) – A freak accidental drowning took the life of a recent addition to Newpor'’s Oregon Coast Aquarium – a female sea lion named Bailey.

Bailey was one of two sea lions playing in their habitat, when the pair somehow loosened a filtration drain cover, the aquarium said. Bailey got caught in the resulting suction from the drain, which kept her from being able to surface and get to air.
