I know you may be ashamed of me as a scientific diver however I haven't yet done all that much research and have tried to be open minded with my research and comments. I will assure you though that any research I do will be without prejudice or any preconceived bias. To me science is about facts and not about what you want the facts to show. I would like to dive areas with the otter as Seahunt suggested to further study his claim that otters are an ecological diasaster.
"sea otters are still in decline due to pollution, disease (caused by fecal runoff from dogs and cats), and the occasional run-in with man."
Don't otters themself polute or is somehow their fecal and urine excretions good for the ecosystem?
