Re: Sea lions starving in mass numbers
If there are too many for their food supply, then they will either be culled by nature or by people. I personally think a bullet to the head is more humane and a death by starvation, so we need to start selling tags for hunts.

I wonder what Sea lion taste like?

Re: Sea lions starving in mass numbers
The IUCN lists the California sea lion as Least Concern due to "its large and increasing population size." The estimated population is 238,000–241,000 for the US or Pacific Temperate stock, 75,000–85,000 for the Western Baja California or Pacific Tropical stock, and 31,393 for the population in the Gulf of California. Off the US coast, sea lions are so numerous that they are close to carrying capacity, while the Gulf of California population declined by 20% by 2008.

In the United States, the California sea lion is protected on the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), passed in 1972, which outlaws hunting, killing, capture, and harassment of the animal. In 1994 an amendment to the Act allowed for the possibility of limited lethal removal of pinnipeds preying on endangered salmonids should the level of predation be documented to have a significant adverse impact on the decline or recovery of ESA-listed salmonids.

Applications have been granted for removal of several individual sea lions at Ballard Locks and at the Bonneville Dam, where up to 92 sea lions can be killed each year for a 5-year period. Critics have objected to the killing of the sea lions, pointing out that the level of mortality permitted as a result of recreational and commercial fisheries in the river and as part of the operation of hydroelectric dams pose a greater threat to the salmon.

These animals exploit more man-made environments like docks for haul-out sites. Many docks are not designed to withstand the weight of several resting sea lions which cause major tilting and other problems. Wildlife managers have used various methods to control the animals and some city officials have redesigned docks so they can better withstand them

Blame the bleeding heart, tree hugging liberals.

Harmless my ass! Research the damage they are doing in the Columbia and Willamette Rivers where they are destroying the sturgeon and salmon on their way to spawn.

The most effective thing that could be done right now for those poor unfortunate creatures...

>>>...Go Hang Yourself...<<<

These creatures are the victim of Toxic Human Populations with Unregulated Growth.

Unregulated, Unsustainable Growth...Sorta like Cancer.

They are looking into your soul...

They are looking at the Demon Possessed Psychopath, that offers no consideration to the long-term consequences of their behavior.
