Humans want orcas to flourish but pinnipeds eat twice the salmon. Pinniped consumption of salmon alone is six times more than all human harvest. Half of wild selective adult salmon removed are human harvested, then overpopulated pinniped attritions. Human fools thrice.
How can salmon provide for us? They won’t. Recovery is like suffering from a hangover. Predictable headache by choice. Only fools say habitat will make it grow their way, maybe aspirin is better. Corrective failures dominate.
Such imagination overly consumed, then abandoning targeted fish for natural survival too damaged, unrecoverable dictates selective failure. Feds fail to rebuild promised treaty rights on wild salmon, ignoring unsustainability. Grants replace answers to treaty litigations, provide work for gleaners, avoiding better fixes. Federal problems ignoring bigger problems, compromising salmon on snipe-hunting ghost chases costing billions gaslights astronomical nonsense.
