“. I don’t know of any jobs that were created by the presence of sea lions.” Au contraire. Many Biologists and environmental lawyers would disagree.

LOL. Right you are. :)

Makes sense. Would not the natural bottlenecks tend to be far upstream? Maybe the sea lions don’t want to go THAT FAR from the ocean. It is interesting that they’ve apparently only recently figured this out in sufficient numbers to be a problem.
Maybe an increase in sea lion population is driving them to look for new food sources.

We should send the California Sea Lion back to California. Build the wall!

Okay. What does that have to do with my comment?

Nothing. I just clicked on the last post, which was yours, at the time. Was a comment to the whole thread, not you in particular.

Sorry but they should be euthanized just like stray dogs and cats. Let the fish live. Fish lives matter!

Sea lions just doing what they’ve done for centuries and centuries. Rational people would just kill them if their populations got too large.

If only Sea Lion was as tasty as Cedar Plank Salmon. I just got a new pellet grill/smoker and can’t wait to try it out.

Bear yummies. They need to make this a Grizzly bear preserve. After they do what Grizzlies do move them to Alaska.
