Since 1980, more than 80% of the world's Steller sea lions have vanished. Tag took part in ground-breaking studies that are helping researchers understand why. He arrived at the Aquarium when he was two weeks old and charmed many visitors with his playful and charismatic personality. He died of oral cancer on July 1, 2008. Tag was a beloved ambassador for sea lions, and his life is a gift to the people he touched and the scientists he helped.
