From a distance, these rocky islands, located in the Pacific Ocean just off-shore from Lima, Peru, appear to be covered by small round stones.  As you move closer, you discover that these “stones” are actually tens of thousands of sea lions.  Even more amazing, the sea lions covering these islands are literally the tip of the iceberg, as 80% of the marine mammals live entirely in the water and never touch the islands.
