"Experts aren't sure what is causing the marine mammals to get sick."
Hmmmm, what could possibly lead to an influx of weak, diseased and dying sea lions washing up on shore? I just can't put my finger on it. Hmmm. Could it be ... overpopulation? |

Stop being asshats!
RIP Walter.... We had many wonderful days on the water enjoying a relaxing day of playing hide and seek with my greenbacks... Can't tell you how much joy it was to watch Walter dive 200 feet to grab my hidden bait... Sometimes he even invites his friends to play along. But some of my memorable moments came playing chase the flyline bait on the surface... I often lost that game as he became better and better at spotting me from a distance like a long lost friend. Walter made me a better jig fisherman and taught me about patience and even a few new words I never knew existed in my vocabulary. Will be dumping a few macs next time I'm out to pay my respect. This was our last picture together.😥. |

malnourished pups
I listened to a scientist from UCSD give a lecture on malnourished pups washing up last year.
Basically, there was an abundance of squid in the water last year. Sea lion mothers were gobbling up the squid instead of their usual diet of mackerel. Squid are not fatty. Mackerel are very fatty. Baby mammals need a lot of fat from their mothers' milk in order to survive, but that year the milk was not fatty as a result of mothers gorging on squid, so many pups starved. I know you're all devastated.

NatGeo
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2...nimal-science/ Does natural pop regulation even exist anymore? I mean rabbits deer wolves etc go through boom and bust as forage fluctuates. Why cant sea lion's pops be greater than what can be supported? I mean Darwin wrote some pretty influential works on just that.
