Shooting seals
aly verbaan

SEALS spitting sinkers faster than tracer-bullets; seals hopping onto boats to snatch a snoek from the hands of a lowly fisherman; seals sinking their teeth into a sunbathing blonde. Barely believable but apparently true stories, according to the various fishermen who related them to People’s Post this week. These were in defence of allegations put to them that they or their crew were guilty of widespread killing and maiming of seals that dare to compete for the bounty of shoals of snoek that run off the Cape peninsula every year.
