Professional fishermen go off the coast because of the seals. The Norwegian Natural Resources Agency’s new answer to the problem is a seal repellent that moves in the sea. Markku Sotisaari’s solution would be more efficient hunting.

\”A state without eggs kills fishing with seals/nork.\”

– This is an anti-fisherman state. The absence of eggs doesn’t mean anything about women, but it seems like a bigger group is deciding things, says Sotisaari.

In the Baltic Sea, just under 42,000 gray seals were counted in aerial counts last year, and the 2020 fur count in the Deep Sea gave a result of about 14,600. According to the Natural Resources Agency’s estimate, the actual harbor seal population is 20-40 percent higher than the census population.

The population of seals and porpoises is still growing, and hunting numbers are not keeping up.

Every year, gray seals and Baltic sea urchins can cause great damage to fishermen. They break down the fishing gear and eat the fish in it. Seals also chase fish away from fishing gear.

– We are talking about tens of thousands of euros per fisherman. They come here to the mouth of the river, especially now during the whitefish fishing season. We’ll see how bad autumn will be in Ii and Kemijoki.
