LAGUNA BEACH, Ca. — Two sea lions that were rescued and rehabilitated by the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in California were released earlier this week.
But before Buoy and Canoe reached the water in front of a group of spectators, they made everyone's hearts melt.
In this video released by the center, Buoy comes out and then stops to wait for Canoe to catch up. Then, they share a quick kiss before heading back into the ocean.
Watch the adorable moment below.
