Sea otters

The reading article and lecture both discuss a fascinating topic decline in population of sea otters. The article postulates that the population of sea otters is declining on the Alaskan coast and provides three compelling reasons to support. The lecturer in lecture explains about the predator hypothesis and provides reasons for the same.

First and foremost according to passage the pollution source along the Alaskan coast are the oil rigs which increased the level of chemicals into the water which leads to decrease in the population of sea otters. The lecturer in lecture refutes this claim by stating fact that sea otters are dieing because of predation. The sea otters are the pray for the animals they killed sea otters and eat right a way.

Secondly, the article posits that the pollution not only result in the population decline of the sea otters but affected other animals too. It is affecting the whole ecosystem. However the lecturer in lecture rebuts this by mentioning that sea otters kill whales and eat them but, as sea whales are declining they have started eating other animals and this result in declining of population of other species.

Lastly, the author wraps the argument by posting that due to pollution hypothesis the population is declined in some areas while remained stable in other areas this explained by the ocean currents. The lecturer opposes this point by explaining that population is stable in areas of shallow rocks while it declined on the coast where pollutants concentration is high
