People sometimes think "good" when they hear that, but the effects are already being seen as the seal population has exploded the past 10 years, which means seals are over-consuming thier own primary food, fish, at an alarming rate, which is throwing off the entire food chain.

I agree and it sucks ass!! I am a "fan" (not the right word but whatever) of sharks and have been since I was little. I used to study about them and do all my reports on them in school and shit.. The declining numbers of sharks over the last few years is amazing. Stories like this one just make it worse since now there will be a handful of dumbasses who think the solution is to hunt and kill them all when they do not look ahead at all the effects it has.
