A few years ago Zoe Lucas and other were able to show that seals on Sable
Island were eating balloons that originated from celebrations in Upper
Canada and had been carried here by winds aloft. The seals were mistaking
them for jellyfish, and often then dying and becoming extremely sick.
Publicity around this made people realize the consequences, and they stopped
releasing these "fun" balloons into the atmosphere. Perhaps we should remind
Sen. Bryan A. Joyce of this, and show his constituents (some of whom are no
doubt anti-seal hunt) those pictures.
