Seriously, this has a snowballs chance in hell, of doing anything to change the MMPA regarding seals.. Best Wishes, but don't bet the farm on it.

I have had some "one on one" time with seals, and not by choice...they are truly not docile when disturbed.. numbers (of them) can lead to some truly aggressive behaviour, on their part.
