Wave after wave of starving sea lion pups are drifting ashore in what officials said could be an outbreak of strandings similar to that seen in 2013 along California’s coastline.
The warmer waters flushed in by El Niño, a periodic marine and atmospheric phenomenon, might be shifting the animals’ food supply....
