The project, called 'Sea Lions in San Francisco' and carried out by the Aquarium of the Bay, is an ode to San Francisco's sea lions.

Nobody knows why sea lions (the real, living sort) suddenly started turning up at Pier 39. However they've stayed for decades, and in 2020 30 different artists were each commissioned to paint one of these fiberglass sea lions, to celebrate 30 years since the sea lions' arrival.
