Sealions
Old 06-07-2008

Anyone know the names of the sealions at Colchester.

I know there is Sydney, Winnipeg and Milan but what are the other two called?

Their three old Patagonian Sealions had the wonderfully original names of Pat, Ago and Nia!

I'm not too sure what the meaning behind the names are. I think it's random!

I hope they call one Tokyo or London
