Its crazy, I thought Canada was one of the worlds most environmentally conscious places. So for them to take place in this barbaric sport simply for their fur blows my mind. Canada will allow hunters to clubb 388,200 grey and hooded seals this year.
The current kill levels are higher than they have been in half a century.
Canada’s annual commercial clubbing of seals is the largest commercial hunt of marine mammals on the planet.
Veterinarians who studied the hunt concluded that the seal hunt failed to comply with Canada’s basic animal welfare standards. In 42 % of the cases studied, the seals had likely been skinned alive while conscious.
What is the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans thinking? He extended the hunting season well into June. There are no penalties if hunters exceed their quotas.
Seals are killed for their fur for fashion and seal oil as in afrodisiac in Asia. ALL HUMAN CONSUMPTION. If people were to open their eyes to the cruelty of animals and stop consumption of furs then there will be little to none production!
This hunt is subsidized by the Canadian government at tax payers expense. How does my canadians feel about that?
