Starving sea lion pups

[Catherine]

My guinea pigs would have eaten your yellowing cabbage leaves. It is possible to live without wasting. When we didn't have much we didn't waste. Now we waste because we can and by doing so we deprive the rest of the planet of food.
People resent raccoons getting at their garbage, but they take all the racoon's real food sources. We are doing the same to the starving sea lions. We strip the sea bare and throw so much of it back as waste.

Quote:It would just take love and respect, and consideration from others.

You are so right. We need to change our attitude and simplify our lives. The planet can't handle us continuing on the way we have.
The sea lions are a symptom of what we have done.

I came across a newer article with a good video.

It is sad to see them so starved. Many won't make it.
One more with a good video.

So it is a combination of over fishing and shifting ocean currents. Poor little sea lions, they did not ask for this.

Last videos, really.

The second video shows how they are working with the babies. I swear I can smell fish when I watch it.
