About 2 weeks before this a whale surfaced in the same area right under a kayaker and they just slid down it's back.
A few years prior to that a Great White killed a swimmer there.
I've explained to people the "animal " get "protected " due to hunters $$$
And convinced one person that logging actually benefits wildlife, but in the end mostly it's not worth the time or effort
I do like telling them about Pitman-Roberts, duck stamps, DU, Delta, NWTF,RMEF and then ask...
