Melanie Sceva Hill said in a Facebook post she came across the strange sight Saturday on Whidbey Island.

Hill wrote. "A [sea lion] on the roof of someone's car in the Nichols Brothers parking lot. This is happening right now and I guess he's been there for a while!" Witnesses said two deputies with the Island County Sheriff's Office eventually arrived and helped coax the sea lion, which had fallen asleep, down from atop the Honda Civic.
