I would hope that the gps data will not fall into the hands of folk who
are trigger happy. I might be naive but I think most folk are past
killing critters on the endangered list.
As for the education we are getting about these buggers and where
they are cruising..... I think that its a good thing.
This past July I was with the family at nauset, and a grey seal was
camped out in front of us. It was overcast and raining and the
water clarity was extremely low because the surfline was choked
with mung. So not exactly swimming weather, but if it were not for
the seal and knowing that whites are potentially around.... I would
have been in the water. That day there was report of a white in the
nauset inlet. Yikes....
I would not say its an unreasonable fear not swimming that day,
but considering the conditions I would definitely say it may be
equivalent to walking around in a thunderstorm. Sort of tempting fate.
I am with Frank on this one. Having those seals wiggling in the same
water I am standing in just seems to be a bad idea. Thank
goodness most of those beaches require little to no wading if you
want to fish them.
