Protect Japanese Harbor Seal.

Japanese Government will be killing 200 of 600 endangered Japanese Harbor seals in Hokkaido to protect Japanese Salmon fishing industry. What a stupid idea. This type of plan has never worked in the past and will never work.
ゴマちゃんとか騒いでいる暇あったら、こういう馬鹿な事に気を使って欲しい。日本中の河川に現れたアザラシの写真を撮って喜んでいた人達、水族館でかわいいとか言って騒いでいる人達は、恩返しして欲しい。
