Samson the Steller Sea Lion: True Animal Stories (Volume 1)

By John Benjamin Sciarra

Samson the Steller Sea Lion is the true story of my experiences training and caring for a dangerous marine mammal in the early 1970's at the Mystic Marinelife Aquarium (now, Mystic Aquarium). No one had much experience back then and we had no idea what we had gotten ourselves into. Here is a poignant look into the mind of one Aquarist and the tentative relationship between human and animal without the fluff. This is the way it was with all of the mistakes and successes. 20% of this book's profits will go to the Mystic Aquarium's Marine Rescue Program in Mystic, Connecticut, USA of which the author was one of the first members.
