Yes, but the status quo, a continually increasing seal population with no coverage / adverse coverage other than the cute little seals, is not going to do us any favors. If we can't fish the beach as in the p[ast maybe maybe the great whites can offer entertainment in the form of Pinniped Snacks. Or, with a little luck, some light gets shined on the situation. All in all, the seals are likely there to stay in large numbers REGARDLESS of what happens thanks to the Marine Mammal Protection Act thingamajig
