State Seeks Permit To Trap And Kill Sea Lions

(Oregon City, OR)  --  The state of Oregon is seeking a permit to trap sea lions along the coast.  People living in the Willamette Falls area say California sea lions are destroying the population of native fish species.  The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is being granted the permit that will let them capture and euthanize sea lions off-site.  The Humane Society of the U.S. says killing sea lions won't address the real problems, which they say are actually dams and overfishing.
