Affectionate Sea Lion Jumps Onto a Boat and Cuddles Against the Human On Board

While out on his boat one sunny day, a bearded man was amusingly caught off guard when an affectionate sea lion jumped aboard and proceeded to cuddle against him for quite a while. Needless to say, the two became instant friends.

Here’s my new friend. He jumped aboard back at the bridge. Just hanging out with me. Snuggles right against my back.
