Into the Backing Ep. 13: Pinniped Predation on Salmon and Steelhead Stocks
Description
In this episode, I sit down with Spencer Greening, Nate Pamplin, and Dave Hansen to dive into the complex issue of pinniped predation and its impact on fisheries. Dr. Spencer Greening, an Indigenous scholar and ecologist, brings cultural and ecological insights into the balance between marine life and traditional fisheries. Nate, a fisheries and wildlife policy expert, sheds light on management strategies and conservation challenges. And Dave Hansen, a seasoned fisherman and advocate, shares firsthand observations from the water. Are sea lions truly to blame for declining fish stocks, or is the issue far more nuanced? Join us as we explore the science, policy, and lived experiences shaping this debate.
