He follows in hot pursuit, as the penguin flaps for shore. The penguin makes it\u2026with the sea lion hot on its trail.</p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">Sea lions and bears share a common ancestor\u2026which is evident, as this fleet-footed pinniped gallops across land in pursuit of the penguin</p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">A southern sea lion male\u2014known as a bull\u2014can grow to be over 8 feet long and weigh as much as 750 pounds. Though they usually hunt in the water, they are more than capable of pursuing prey on land\u2014reaching speeds of up to 20 miles per hour.</p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">And while the penguin makes a valiant attempt to escape, it proves no match for the giant sea lion.</p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">After killing the bird, the sea lion returns to the water to eat his meal.</p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">Giant petrels are scavenging seabirds, known for their love of carrion and cast-offs. They show up in droves to take advantage of the sea lion\u2019s less than tidy table manners.</p><p class=\"MsoNormal\">While the penguin met an undignified end, for the sea lion and petrels, this hunt has been a great success.</p>",
