Fishermen seen dragging a Sea lion through the streets after being caught alive in Delta State

A trending video on social media shows the moment local fishermen caught a Sealion and were dragging it through the streets in Burutu, Delta State. The video has generated criticism from social media users with one asking ; Why must they eat everything?!!!Sea Lions are Endangered species and according to Livescience.com, they were first added to the Endangered Species List in 1990 because of steep declines in their population; humans who felt the animals were eating their fishing catch shot them. Outreach and education has largely stopped the shootings, according to a NOAA statement.
