Abstract
Endocarditis associated with Escherichia coli was diagnosed in a 2-year-old male sea lion (Zalopus californianus). At necropsy, the heart had biventricular dilation with marked attenuation of the apex. Verrucous, grayish-red, vegetative lesions were present in both the aortic and left AV valves. Several discrete hyperemia-rimmed infarcts were noted in the kidneys. (omitted)
