This year on June 19th, Dolphin Discovery Riviera Maya celebrated the birth of a male
Sea Lion. This is the third breeding of a beautiful female sea lion named Luna that lives in this location.
Both have great health and they are under our extraordinary veterinarian team care.
They make sure that both stays in a extremely clean area, and that Luna feeds
her breeding between 14 and 16 times a day.
