IMO, the seal hunt should be prohibited. There is simply no reason whatsoever for these tyrants to club baby seal cubs to death. It is cruel, and very often painful for the animal involved.

I was amused by this quote: "They are vicious killers who are now pleading for sympathy because some of their own died while engaged in a viciously brutal activity."

"One of the sealers was quoted as saying that he felt absolutely helpless as he watched the boat sink with sealers onboard." Watson said.

"I can't think of anything that defines helplessness and fear more than a seal pup on the ice that can't swim or escape as it is approached by some cigarette-smoking ape with a club."


I find it ironic that these people mourn the loss of their own sealers, but feel no remorse for clubbing these animals to death.
The Canadian Government needs to step in and ban this 'sport'.
