Nick, the 700-pound sea lion whose booming bark echoed through City Park, has passed away before he could return home to the Denver Zoo.

His sudden loss has left staff and visitors heartbroken. It’s a reminder of how animals can become part of a community’s story. Who else has memories of Nick’s bark or antics at the zoo? Let’s share them below. #Pets #DenverZoo #SeaLion
