Canadian Seal Hunt

a good scratch
I feel like it's necessary to post this because most people aren't even aware it's happening. (It's not in the news much, either).

Canadian Seal Hunt is under way and this year 275,000 seals will be slaughtered simply for their fur. The hunt is barbaric and, yes, seals are still killed through clubbing and being skewered with hooks. They are still pups no matter what misinformation you may hear: pups have the fur. It is NOT sustainable and even less so due to melting ice floes. Don't believe the lies. Watch the video:



It's time for this massacre to END. Boycott Canadian Seafood. Click the link below for more can you can do!

This is one of the main things I hate about Canada. I don't understand the seal hunt... like, I understand it when it was necessary for LIFE, but now it's just moronic!

Every year on the news you hear about it, and every year I get sick over it and sign things and donate things and put on name on things to get it to end.

Meee neither. Actually I don't understand hunts for any reason: presumably back in the days seals had predators that people killed off, right?

Thanks for making a difference! :) That's great.

Yeah. It makes me pretty ashamed. I hate that people think it's ok because 'they've always made their money this way'. That's how the slave traders felt at one point too! EVOLVE!.

Yeah, so true. People use 'culture' and 'tradition' to accept all forms of evil. :(

Absolutely unacceptable. I can't believe that people would even go through with this. I mean, imagine one of those men who just clubbed a baby seal to its' death going home to small children. It doesn't click. It's completely wrong.

I'd like to add you as a friend, if you don't mind.
