Watch commercial fisherman Allan Marsden throw a 'bear banger' off his vessel and into a crowd of sea lions, and the reaction of the animals to the small explosive device. Commercial fisherman Allan Marsden is pictured throwing a ‘bear banger’ into a group of sea lions in the Strait of Georgia. Marsden says he used the bear banger to disperse the sea lions — not to kill them. "You know we're not out there trying to kill the sea lions, we're not out there looking for sea lions, we'd rather if they weren't here," said Marsden. Some showed support for Marsden's action, saying it sheds light on how sea lions can interfere with fishing activities.
