I'm happy to be a couple of thousand miles away from California, but I've heard that sea lions have become the nastiest, smelliest, most plentiful and destructive vermin coastal property owners have to deal with in California, aside from their fellow Californians.
The moonbats have all kinds of laws that even prevent property owners from shooing the damn things away.
They sound like the geese on our golf courses. People who have to deal with them don't mourn when one, or many of them, dies.
