Calls Increase to Reduce Seal Population
9/18/18
The seal population is in focus after the weekend fatal shark attack on the Outer Cape.
State shark researcher Dr. Greg Skomal believes the shark thought it was attacking a seal.
Experts point out that the marine mammals have a thriving community off the Cape, which has in turn led to increased shark activity.
Some are now becoming more vocal in calling for the seal population to be culled.
