Arent seals considered a pest to sealife hence they cull the population. Or am i thinking of something else?

Pest is a strong word, but they do comsume a ridiculous amount of fish.  And with few natural predators their population can get out of control.  We have millions of them in Canada and about 60-70,000 are allowed to be culled each year.  Humans have lived off seals in this area for thousands of years.  It's a natural ecosystem for them to be hunted.
