I remember that a lot of deer died from starvation and sickness because they over-bred. NB: I'm not in favor of killing seals for rich people's furs. I'm not in favor of people wearing furs. But since humans are running this planet, we have the responsibility to try to solve the disasters we've created (like over-breeding). We shouldn't be overly concerned with the issue of cuteness. A lot of endangered species aren't cute the way baby seals are. -- Jim Devine / "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti."
