Galápagos sea lions play a vital ecological role as top predators in marine ecosystems, regulating prey populations and contributing to ecosystem stability. As apex predators, they help maintain the health and diversity of marine habitats by controlling populations of prey species such as fish, cephalopods, and crustaceans. By foraging on a diverse range of prey items, sea lions influence trophic dynamics and energy flow within coastal food webs. Their presence and feeding behavior shape the structure and function of marine ecosystems, highlighting their importance in maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity in the Galápagos Islands.
