About 75 dolphins and 25 sea lions are housed at Naval Base Point Loma in San Diego Harbor as part of a navy program to teach them to detect terrorists and mines underwater.
Both species can find mines and spot swimmers in murky waters. Working in unison, the dolphins can drop a flashing light near a mine or a swimmer.
The sea lions carry in their mouths a cable and a handcuff-like device that clamps onto a terrorist's leg. Sailors can then use the cable to reel in the terrorist.
