A 230-pound sea lion found near East Bayshore Road on Nov. 8 is now in the care of The Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, where staff named him after a Palo Alto Animal Services employee, with a marine-themed twist. James Moss was the first person to reach out to the Center after discovering the large mammal that led him and other staff to prevent it from entering the street.
