El Paso Zoo Delays Sea Lions' Birthday Celebration Due to Heat

The El Paso Zoo has postponed the birthday party for its California sea lions, Delilah and Dichali, originally scheduled for today. Zookeeper Grecia Alvarado explained that the extreme heat has left the animals lethargic and uninterested in training or interacting with visitors. This behavior is typical for sea lions during the summer months, as they prefer to rest rather than perform.
