Copenhagen Zoo is home to a group of sea lions, providing visitors with the opportunity to observe these marine mammals up close. The sea lion habitat is designed to mimic their natural environment, featuring spacious pools and rocky areas for basking.

In March 2026, the zoo introduced the Leopard Trail, a 160-meter pathway that extends the leopards' habitat and passes near the sea lion area. This addition allows visitors to experience both species in close proximity, enhancing the overall zoo experience.

While specific details about individual sea lions, their acquisition, or breeding programs are not readily available, Copenhagen Zoo is committed to conservation efforts. The zoo actively participates in breeding endangered species and engages in global partnerships to protect wildlife.
