In an effort to use a fake, life-sized orca to scare off hundreds of sea lions crowding docks off the Oregon coast ended, at least temporarily, with the fiberglass creature belly-up after it was swamped by a passing ship.
Still, Port of Astoria Executive Director Jim Knight said the sea lions briefly "got deathly silent" when the orca sailed into view. That was just before it started listing and tipped over Thursday night." "Our crew from the port had to go rescue the operator so he didn't drown.

It was a cunning scheme, one that pitted the sly artifice of man against whatever it is sea lions have. But alas—nature won.
