In reply to the discussion: Re: the asshole who attacked the Hawaiian monk seal. Since krasnov's [View all]harumph
(3,410 posts)14. No only was it animal cruelty, the monk seal, IIRC, is protected.
Protected both under the Endangered Species Act and Marine Mammals Protection Act. There's probably state charges as well.

res ipsa loqutur. There is no conceivable excuse for his behavior on this planet or any other. If someone does
