    Confirmation a sea lion pup found dead last month in the Catlins Estuary, died after being injured by a shotgun


    DOC Murihiku Operations Manager, John McCarroll, says the young female sea lion likely died several hours after being shot.

    At least 25 steel shotgun pellets were found in her body.

    The New Zealand Sea Lion Trust is offering a five-thousand dollar reward for information that leads to prosecution over the shooting.
