A dozen or so with a barely recovering population of apex predators that were OH LOOK AT THAT
WIPED OUT BY US TOO!

But they're numbers could certainly use some thinning before all the fish are gone and then they will definately leave.

See the issue is, the fish won't be gone, they're not going to wipe out all the bass and bluefish. If the numbers actually got that low they'd move on. You're anthropomorphizing seals. They're not going to stay in one spot and wipe it 100% clean, the only creature that does that is humans. Once a population of food starts getting lower, they'll move or eat something else.

10,000+ seals in the area is a bit much can't you admit that as a human who also fishes?

Are there 10,000+ seals? Has someone released these numbers as 100% accurate or are you just guessing?

Polar bears are starving, feed them a seal or 100, good idea.
