it's not a matter of party politics, pasta. All human societies have put humans first, and so they should. There are reasons why people go closer to walruses than they would to lions or elephants; the authorities in this case seem to have done their best to keep them away, so I don't think they can take any blame. In their position I'd have done the same.
"...other options had been considered, including moving Freya out of the fjord, but they had been discarded out of concern for the welfare of the walrus"
TTT, I said it wasn't party politics - that was your contribution. But things like laws protecting animals will naturally come from governments, and they will put humans first: governments are human creations and rely on human votes.
