Title: Great Adventure on Channel Six News Tonight
Post by: peterpjr on February 14, 2007, 06:29:03 PM
G.A. made Action News tonight in Philly.  There was a report on the Kissing Sea Lions.  Amazing to see they train the animals even in this cold.

You beat me to it!  I just saw this on the Allentown news a few minutes ago and was coming on here to post it.

They are Siberian, so it's nothing for them.  I saw one sitting on a block of ice that formed in the tiger pen last off-season. lol

The part that freaked me out was that the trainer had obviously been in the water at some point.  So she was outside in 20 some degree weather jumping in water (though it was definately pre-recorded)?  I hope its heated.

Anyway, nice to see philly news making their way out there.

While watching it on T.V. you could see the steam rising out of the pool, so I'm sure it's heated. The end segment is funny when the lion starts making all that noise.
