Another example of the insanity of omnipresent and perpetual travel addiction of humans causing pain and suffering. Most people would say I don't do that - It doesn't matter as long as you are freaking addicted to travel sans self reflection.
In this case both the travelers and local authorities are to be blamed:
A popular walrus that attracted tourists has been put down by Norwegian authorities because they said she posed a danger to the public.1
Freya was a 1,320-pound (600 kilograms) female walrus who became popular in the Oslo Fjord, an inlet in Norway, for socializing with humans. She was filmed climbing aboard several boats to sunbathe—and then sinking them.2
Recently, Norwegian authorities warned people to stay away from her after sharing a photo with her alongside a large crowd. There were reports of people swimming with her, throwing things at her, and getting close for photos.3
“The decision to euthanize the walrus was made based on an overall assessment of the continued threat to human safety,” Frank Bakke-Jensen, director general of the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries, said in a statement.1
People still got too close, despite warnings to stay away.
“Through on-site observations the past week it was made clear that the public has disregarded the current recommendation to keep a clear distance to the walrus,” Bakke-Jensen said.
To be clear if you are a travel addict, Freya didn't do anything to harm any human and she was only friendly with sapiens. But yet, they killed her, imagining (premonition/precognition a.k.a minority report movie) she might harm someone because tourists were getting close to her.
I am sorry Freya.
