In the summer of 1988, my sister and I were interns at UCSC's Long Marine Lab. To thank us for long hours of cutting up frozen herring, the research team let the interns swim with Rio the sea lion. Rio liked to exchange "nose blows" - apparently a typical sea lion greeting that involved snorting in each others' faces. According to the grad students on the project, if an intern gave insufficient nose blows, Rio was prone to swimming onto their chest and sinking them under the water - the ensuing panic helped interns produce nose blows with sufficient vigor. In this video, Rio took a shine to me, and decided to give me an assortment of nose blows, gnaw gently on my arm, and tug on my wetsuit's zipper pull.
