In his first statement, he points to a fact not mentioned in the passage saying that there were no dead otters washing up on the shores which would have been the case had these otters died of any disease due to reduced immunity levels. Since there were no such bodies of either otters or seals washing up he believes that these animals were eaten.

He mentions that regions which are shallow did not see a decline in population because the orcas could not reach their prey but in places with deep waters, they observed a decline in population and effectively casting his doubts on the passage.
