The number of sea lions found shot to death in Puget Sound is higher than first thought.
We first heard of five sea lions found shot to death in January and February, but biologists recovered a total of 11 carcasses so far this year, they've now determined 10 were shot to death.
"It's a very, very sad situation," said Robin Lindsey, a photographer and a first responder for Seal Sitters, a group that works to protect the marine animal.
She was there when biologists examined the endangered stellar sea lion found in West Seattle. She watched, as they found the bullet that killed it.
