As other sea animals, Southern Sea Otters deserve to survive in their natural habitat .Sea otters naturally keep the balance in their ecosystem and labeling these creatures as "voracious eaters of sea urchin and abalone" it does mean that they are doing something wrong! On the contrary, we need to understand that humans are intruding their habitat by indiscriminated fishering.
The California Sea Urchin Commission, California Abalone Association, California Lobster and Trap Fishermen’s Association, and Commercial Fishermen of Santa Barbara filed a lawsuit asking Service to review the relocation of sea otters, ignoring that Sea otters naturally will come back where they belong. Why business profits should be above of sea life? Are we living in a different planet than other species?All the living creatures in this planet keep a strong interdependence and any action that is a threat for one of us, will affect us, sooner or later.
Please continue to protect Sea Otters and find more options to pursue Commercial Fishing to understand the relevance of this issue.
