(telegraph.co.uk) - Staff at a restaurant in San Diego were surprised to discover an unexpected visitor had spent the night there this week - an eight-month-old female sea lion pup.
Bernard Guillas, executive chef at the The Marine Room restaurant, took a few pictures of the animal and posted them to Facebook, quipping: "He was a little bit early for his high tide breakfast reservation ... as it is this weekend on Sunday and Monday."
Restaurant staff called in experts from SeaWorld San Diego, who captured the sea lion in a net and took her back to the theme park where she's now being nursed back to health.
A spokesman for SeaWorld said they are "guardedly optimistic" that the animal will be able to be returned to the wild.
