The reading and the lecture are both about sea otters and decline in the population. The author of the reading feels that sea otters are dead to oil and hunters. The lecturer challenges the claims made by the author. He is of the opinion that sea otters dead flowing on the sea. If predators eat sea otters they did not flow into the sea.
To begin with, the author argues that sea otters are dead because of oil. The article mentions that the oil flows along the Alaskan coast such as oil rigs. The specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims washing away on the coast. Additionally, he says that if the reason is correct why other animals are not dead.
Secondly, the writer suggests predators hunt while human hungers. In the article, it is said that only predators that occurred in a large area. The lecturer, however, rebuts this by mentioning if sea otters are dead by predators, why other animals are not dead.
Finally, the author posits that sciences believed the pollution hypothesis would also explain the uneven pattern of otter decline. In contrast, the lecturer’s position is the otter’s death is caused by ocean current and not by the pollutants.
