Small islands along the coast of south western Australia are the perfect, and only habitat of Australian sea lions. These guys are the most endangered sea lion species in the world and their numbers won’t be rising anytime soon. Research is insufficient, human pollution of their habitat and the way they reproduce, make it hard for this species to recover from the extensive history of being hunted by humans.
