OH... Larry said culling pinnipeds is the quickest, easiest way to provide the SRKW with more salmon to eat. If politics are considered in that equation (co-management complicates just about anything we try to do for the Sound), he's probably right about that.

Remove the political BS, and a far cheaper, far easier alternative becomes available:

Just sayin'.
