CHIMBOTE – 20 sea lions were poisoned

Up to 20 dead fur seals were found in spas Samanco District, Province of Santa, Ancash Region, during an inspection by law enforcement officials and policy makers in the area.

Governor Samanco, Milia Chinchay Linder said that the remains of marine species were found on the banks of the spas Los Chimús Salinas and Besique.

He said that besides presenting blows on their backs, many of the mammals had snout full of foam, which seems to suggest that they were poisoned.

“Según testimonios, algunos pescadores llamados ‘cordeleros’, quienes siembran Conchas de abanico, serían los que estarían envenenando a los Lobos”, counted.

Political authority requested the intervention of the authorities to find those responsible for the killing of these marine mammals.
