The food chain's usually good at balancing itself, except in areas where human have interfered. The Japanese whaling industry often uses 'restoring balance' as a justification for the mass-killing of Antarctic Minke whales, claiming that they're pests responsible for destroying fish stocks. The argument doesn't hold water, I'm afraid.
Yeah I know, it sort of like killing a mocking bird. Seals aint harming any, and yet these guys are killing these little seal pups all in purpose for the fur. Us humans have almost driven species of animals to the brink of extinction, like the Washington State Salmons, we know pay millions a year to restoring them. Its just I think its wrong to kill them when us humans probably consume more fish then a seal does, and the world is full of plenty fish. But hey humans are apart of the food chain, and I guess it is right in a way to kill them even though I am sort of against it.
