I've read a history book or two that implied that humans in the past
were capable of solving such problems.

Sea lion C404 is seen in the fish ladder at Bonneville Dam Tuesday, March 21, 2006, in Cascade Locks, Ore. Numerous sea lions head for the dam each spring, but C404 is in a class alone. Extra gates, firecrackers, rockets, and rubber bullets so far haven't kept the whiskered rascal out. They will have to think up new strategies, but can't kill C404 because sea lions are protected under the 1972 Marine Mammal Protection Act. (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer)

"If he were in a litter of puppies, he's the one you would pick," he said. Wrong...he'd be the worst pup too pick...he'd be into trouble all the time..just like he is now...
If he is that destructive who in their right mind would want him...they'd sure be sorry after they picked him...
Only liberals admire crafty destructiveness...personally the best thing to do is shoot him (with real bullets) before he passes on that same gene to more destructive sea lions...
They wont shoot him.. they just let things get worse and worse.. they must figure the problem will work itself out?

What's the big problem? How many fish can he kill and eat before he's too full to move?
There's always another problem for a liberal greenie weenie to stick his nose into!

Sea lions gotta eat too.
Yep and so to killer whales. He's becoming a very good meal for a small pod. But the enviro's will chase the whales away if they get close. Let nature takes it's toll. Mother nature always figures these messes up. Keep the government out of it. Bet the Indians didn't have this trouble for long.

The Sea Lions that come into the mouth of the Eel River near Eureka will catch a Salmon and take a big bite then move on to the next victim letting the carcase float out to sea...

Perhaps A pod of fake,giant plastic inflatable killer whales should be situated at the start of the ladders. Or, play recorded calls of killer whales in the process of knackering up sea lions, or of the sea lion's distress calls as they are dispatched by the pod. Call the Disney corp! Animatronic killer whales on the salmon ladder ride!

"Something will eat the remaider, so nothing is lost."
Except the tax money we spent on hatcheries to produce the salmon to support the fisheries that put that salmon on our table for food. While you and I are something, we are not the something that gets to eat that salmon.
To: Pete from Shawnee Mission
Salmon headed for the rivers are going to die. Natural food cycle has been around since...
Just because humans have taken a chunk out of the salmon population doesn't mean that the sealions or other sea life have to suffer for it.
PS. I haven't noticed a salmon shortage at the stores.
