Seattle Post-Intelligencer: Sea lions blamed for failure of charity herring sale: "Sea lions blamed for failure of charity herring sale
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NANAIMO, British Columbia -- It wasn't the Grinch that ruined the annual Christmas herring sale, it was the sea lions.
'I was really disappointed because the herring sale is a holiday tradition here,' said Bob Carpenter, 63, a member of the United Fishermen and Allied Workers Union.
Working with other union members, Carpenter has been involved with the pre-Christmas herring sale to raise money for charities in this Vancouver Island town for 46 years. He was preceded in the fund-raiser by his father, George."
