National officials are offering a $20k reward to anyone who can help them identify a boater who drove through a herd of sea lions in Oregon.
A video recording shows a boat heading east away from the Interstate Bridge and taking aim at resting California sea lions in the Columbia River on April 3 near Hayden Island. The boat runs through the herd but then takes aim at another down the river, and again runs them over. It’s unclear if any sea lions were hurt.
“We try to work with the fishing community to provide options to manage the approach of sea lions but these animals are wildlife,” Milstein said. “They’re protected by the marine mammal protection act.” “We are certainly taking this seriously. These animals come back to the Columbia River every year to some extent. They’re drawn to food, usually the same species in some cases anglers are going for and we need to provide them the space and respect they need to live.”
