Ona is competing well and gaining weight quickly.

Ona loves to spend her time hauled out in the sun and relaxing in between meals.

Ona has moved into a larger pool where she seems to be enjoying Darby’s company.

Ona is now eating fish all on her own. Before she knows it she will be in a pool with new friends and lots of room to play.
