The Canadian Seal Hunt has started. It runs from March through April. 275,000 seals are targeting for killing. The skins are sold to Norway and Asia and to fashion designers.

The more people that decry this practice, the sooner it will end. It is basically a welfare program for poor seaside villages.

2. I know, same here

You only need to see it once really. You don't hear much about it in America, unless you are up-to-date on the animal welfare issues.
