A 9-year-old Central Coast girl is recovering after a sea lion attack in the waters off Monterey County.
KSBW reports that Corale Olsen was in the ocean during surf camp with her brother and sister when she saw the sea lion nearby. Then, the nightmare began.
"We were pretty deep in the ocean," Olsen said. "So then, the sea lion went under my instructor's leg and then it came up to me and bit me, and then I got dragged underwater."
Olsen then described the scary moments after being bitten.
"It was pain and I was screaming and then my instructor said, 'What happened?' Then I said, I got bit and it hurts so bad," she said.
The quick-thinking surfing instructor grabbed all three kids and swam back to shore.
Olsen suffered puncture wounds and bruising to her leg.
Despite the encounter, she says she has no plans to stop going out into the water.

Bitten, retards.
Well it sounds like the adult actually kept it together well and did the necessary and proper things to get everyone to safety. Glad it won’t deter the kids.
A moose once bited my sister.
Mynd you sealiøn bites Kan be pretti nasti.
Where’s a sharpened toothbrush when you need one?
“Bitten, retards”
I heard them play last summer at a music festival. Their music was too loud for my taste.
It often takes more than one incident for some people to learn a lesson.
I don’t think she’s saying she will mess with sea lions? You think she should avoid the ocean and live in a bubble?
Well at least they didn’t write “Got Bited”
Thankfully it wasn’t 2 meeses. Even one moise is dangerous.
You can kiss proper English goodbye because of the low standards America’s allowed the teaching profession to sink to.
It was only because of the cheese.
The waters of Monterey are one of the prime breeding grounds for great white sharks in the world and they feed on seals. I'm surprised anyone is comfortable swimming in those waters.
Ooops, I meant to say feeding grounds not breeding grounds. Scientists don’t really know where Great White sharks breed, IIRC. That’s still a mystery AFAIK.
Mean big teeth too
And all your base are belong to us
They have to get off the sofa first
Well what did you expect from a German touring band? :-)
The sea lion identifies as a shark...😀
