jetro 5,349 Posted September 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Their rank once cut open, very fatty blubber, and reek of fish, obviously. These can get to some size as well. Atb j Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jetro 5,349 Posted September 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 I used to work on the salmon farms, iv seen seals, just two take up to between 16 and 20k a week in fish. When we fished nets, you'd haul them, but get nothing but heads, it's can and was infuriating, plus disheartening. Atb j Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they are good eating why not just allow people to harvest them for food, it’s a bit like the Forest of Dean wild bore should be a good source of organic meat for the local economy, but the locals aren’t allowed and the government just have culls that cost money, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
