Ever notice that people will go out of their way to save an animal that is cute, but the hell with something that is ugly.
If they were out there clubbing Platypus no one would say shit.
We have a similar problem in the states, Whitetail Deer in the northern states are coming down with chronic waisting disease, which is a deteriation of brain tissue.
Kind of like mad cow disease.
About 100 miles north of me, the deer population has exploded out of control, because of a lack of management. No hunting is allowed in Cook county, so what happens.
THe deer population explodes, the food supply dwindles, and death and disease take over. Soon enough the Whitetail will be on the threatened list.
A similar thing happened in South Dakota, the prairie dog is now on the threatened list because ranchers had been poisoning them because they destroy cattle ranch land. Instead of allowing hunters to come in and control the population they did this.
I know a lot of folks think animals are cute and all but herd animals need to be harvested for the benefit of wildlife management, without it more problems are created.
I do agree that clubbing seals is barbaric, they should be killed more humanely if it is necessary.
