so we basically screw up the entire ocean ecosystem by overharvesting, and its the seals fault?

I think we screw up the ecosystem by not harvesting ANY of the natural predators.

We have let seal populations run rampant b/c they are cute and cuddly and now they are devastating the fisheries. Fisherman traditional hunted seals to keep the populations down and protect their fisheries -- it wasn't that long ago that towns on the cape paid bounties for seal noses (no need to bring the whole body in to get paid, just the nose for proof).

Eliminate the predator of any species, and that species will run rampant - in this case, we have eliminated man, and now the seal populations will grow unchecked.
