Every year producers find seals trying to help themselves to salmon farm livestock on the Faroe Islands, but as of yet, marine biologists don't have a clear picture of just how big the population is, or their full impact on the sector.
Bjarni Mikkelsen, biologist at the Biological Institute on the Faroe Islands, wrote in an article published on the research institution Fiskaaling’s website that the extent of the problem is not likely very big.
Mikkelsen occasionally hears from producers troubled by seals, but that it does not appear to any great problem.
