Decoy sealions keep frisky males from harassing humans
« on: January 07, 2011, 06:34:07 PM »
Sealions chasing people around on South Island beaches is a problem that's growing as sealion slowly recolonise the mainland.  I don't think this is a solution that can be applied on a wide scale, but it could be useful at some high sealion/human visitation sites.
