the life aquatic

SAN FRANCISCO — A Navy seal — actually a sea lion — took less than a minute to find a fake mine under a pier near AT&T Park.

A dolphin quickly located a terrorist lurking in the black water before another sea lion, using a device carried in its mouth, cuffed the pretend saboteur's ankle so authorities could reel him in.

The specially trained Navy Marine Mammals, based in San Diego, stole the show in a day of anti-terrorism training exercises held at ports throughout California.

More than 3,000 local, state and federal responders are participating in the scenarios that began Tuesday as part of California's annual, two-day homeland security and disaster preparedness exercises started by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2004. (via)
