Cammen quoted in AP story about controlling seal populations

The Associated Press interviewed Kristina Cammen, University of Maine assistant professor of marine sciences, for an article highlighting recent increases in seal populations along Maine’s coast. Cammen, a marine mammal scientist, advises against using hunting to reduce seal numbers. “A healthy ecosystem has sharks, seals and humans and they all have a place in that ecosystem.”  The Chicago Tribune, WBZ (Channel 4 in Boston) Maine Public and the Borneo Bulletin shared the AP story.
