Sea lions have smelliest farts in animal kingdom according to zookeeper.

“Of all the gastro-releases I have had the pleasure or displeasure of experiencing, the sea lion is the one that will clear the area the quickest,” Rick Schwartz of San Diego Zoo claims.
Asked to describe the stench, Schwartz said, “I don’t think there’s really any other odor on the planet that could do it justice to describe it to a citizen who’s never experienced it.”
“Keep in mind that sea lions eat a wide variety of fish and squid species,” he said. “Fish, in general, can get pretty odiferous pretty quickly. Now put it through the chemical changes that goes on in a stomach and blow that out the other end, you have an idea that it’s a very powerful, pungent odor.”

You should try driving the coast in California. You can smell the huge groups of sea lions that are on the beach while driving the highway.

The animals are also making their larger presence known by excreting big bubble clouds of brown waste and streams of urine into the water and onto the rocks, and keeping residents awake with loud barking. “It’s dirty, it stinks, and it’s like swimming in a toilet that hasn’t been flushed,” said Anne Cleveland, 57, a yoga instructor and former La Jolla Town Council president. Once thought to be caused by the avian guano on the rocks, the foul odor that has tourists covering their faces with their T-shirts or scarves, exclaiming, “Oh, my God, this is awful,” has recently been determined to be caused by vast quantities of sea lion poop.
La Jolla Cove locals discuss the sea lions that have descended upon La Jolla Cove in the past ten years, befouling the area with poop and becoming aggressive with humans. The odor is a problem unto itself — driving locals and tourists away from area restaurants and hotels — but it is also an indicator of an even broader set of problems, including water-quality issues and the increasingly troublesome pinniped vs. people interactions playing out on the sand and in the water.

Yeah, my ex-wife wouldn't just run you out of the room but completely out of the house.

Get within a mile of the seal beach south of Big Sur, and the stench will make you understand that this is correct. Rancid fish farts.
