According to the theory of the Survival of the Fittest, the fact that we don' see many of the red, blue, or yellow sea lions is because most of them have already been eaten by the sharks. It's the dark ones that they don't really enjoy that are left. Come on people - lighten up. The original post was meant to be a little humorous - not start a debate on the eating, mating, and/or sexual orientation of sharks. If it was a real concern to me, I wouldn't be paddling in the ocean. :) Steve > > Unfortunately, it is not. But let's try not to, anyway, unless we have > > better info.

I don't recall them having any interest in the red, blue, or yellow ones. ;-) *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Sep 21 1999 - 14:28:52 PDT
