SeaWorld welcomes sea lions from Pacific Northwest
Wednesday, May 07, 2008 10:23 AM ET | contributed by Jeff

Days of picking off wild salmon at the all-you-can-eat buffet on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest have come to a close for the three newest residents of SeaWorld San Antonio.

Thats actually a real shame to shoot sea lions. They should let us shoot at the fishermen.

There is a problem when we have to compete with wild animals for the same food source.

It's nice that there are at least three seals out of harm's way from the fisherman who dont care about environment. Let's just hope the government does a good and safe job trapping and transplanting.

On a side not, not all fisherman are terrible like that. Lets only shoot the ones who are jerks. Haha.
