Is this for real? Canada kills 300,000 baby seals per year
 

If it is, its sad.

Where do you expect us to source our genuine Saskatchewan sealskin bindings?

That's soooooo fucked up. Asian countries get a lot of heat for their shit, but wow, right here at our American home we allow this type of bullshit. Sick, sad, stupid fuckers.

i don't agree with it. dumbfuck first nations people claim its their heritage so you can't say anything about it without being labelled as racist.

Do you mean white coats, when you're talking baby seal?

ya, people and their dumbfuck "ancient rituals" or whatever, like this shit in Nepal
"Deopokhari festival", they have a group of retards who rip a goat into peices with their teeth, hands, :disgust

Heritage my ass! We've got supermarkets now. They like our modern society for power, tv, phones, cars, etc. Just not it's food.

Can I use the heritage excuse too? Well it's my peoples heritage to kill, rape and steal their land. Problem solved.

wow, ~800 baby seals killed every day for heritage.

Let me guess, baby seals are white - thats a good thing!

There's a war going on, millions will die.

:thumbsup

why is this worse than killing baby cows for their meat?

because you dont Club cows to death.

Speak for yourself. I kill all my food with my bare hands, the way it should be done.

Lol - not a bad idea "I dont eat animals I cant kill with my bare hands" :1orglaugh

You might as well with the way they are treated in mass production though.

And what about horse slaughter plants? These are PETS! Yet people hit them with a nail in the brain to stun them and then slice their throat and hang them by a foot so they bleed out.

Race horses, show horses, PMU horses who have had to stand month after month bagged to give urine while being pregnant so that women can have their hormone therapy only to have babies that no one wants for them all to be killed.

It's a cruel cruel world. And for the people who kill these animals every day of their lives, I can't imagine what their lives are like. How immune they become to the feelings of other living things. How insensitive they become to everything. I would never want to live that way.

this was a horror for me in grade school. they are not all white! we watch a video about this. Harpseals.org - A Non-Profit Charity Working to End the Canadian Seal Hunt donate!! get involved!

It has to do with how they were born, we make the cows fuck and those do not count because they would not have been born anyway but the seals are born in the wild so they should be left alone. Just like the dolphins,
That and the fact that they beat them with clubs doesn't help much either LOL

Fucking ********** grrrrrr.... :mad::mad::mad:

Ashamed I am... I checked some news and looks like in 2015 the fucked up Harper government of Canada made the quota to 468K

Fucking disgusting : Canadian Government's seal hunt allows almost HALF A MILLION to be slaughtered for fur | Daily Mail Online

Sad If True

Cows are bred to be consumed.

Yeah, and that happens under libby prime minister!

And crockett would claim it is republicans (or republican supported companies) doing their dirty work if that was in US :1orglaugh

I can see him now...pulls up in his Chevy Volt. Takes a moment to post about how much he loves the Democrat Party in the United States and how stupid everyone is that doesn't agree with each and everything that Pres. Obama says.
Then he hops out of his "car" with his IPhone in one hand (talking to crockett) and a club in the other.
:(

Probably works up an appetite before heading back home in his Volt to dine on baby porpoise sprinkled with elephant tusk dust.

But at least he's helping us all by keeping his "carbon footprint" low. :(

I wonder if we could beat "manmade" global warming if all humans just stopped exhaling?

source: Canadian Seal Harvest ââ?¬â?? Myths and Realities

The Northwest Atlantic harp seal population is healthy and abundant with an estimated population of 7.4 million animals, almost six times what it was in the 1970s.

The commercial seal harvest is managed on the basis of sound conservation principles to ensure the resource is conserved for generations to come. Management decisions are based on long-term conservation and sustainability principles and take into consideration the departmentâ??s management plan, the latest science advice (including changes in reproductive rates, the effects of climate change, ice conditions, etc.) and consultation with industry.

The harvesting of harp seal pups (whitecoats) and hooded seal pups (bluebacks) is illegal in Canada and has been since 1987. The seals that are harvested are self-reliant, independent animals.

where can i buy seal meat?

Looks like someone tried to club him to death but he survived...those scars tell the tale.

For once we agree

Thanks for the fact check.

Ask Heidi.

She ate seal meat.

Come on. Of all the reasons, valid or not, to have a hate on for Harper do you honestly believe this is one of them? Do you really think Harper had any personal involvement in this decision or do you suppose that maybe the experts employed at the Department of Fisheries and Oceans came to the decision on their own based on current laws and regulations? These same people likely still work at the DFO now that Trudeau is in power and may very well come up with a similar or higher number this year. And just like Harper, Trudeau will likely not have any input into it. Will you be back here then complaining about the "fucked up Trudeau government"? I doubt it.

And how about this under the "fucked up Harper government":

Or this report released near the end of the "fucked up Chretien/Martin government":


.

If I saw a huge seal about ready to club me then I would club him right back out of self defense.

My real response: Humans are the assholes at the party of life. We kill, take away land, consume mass quantities of food and plasticy junk, and then when we see an injured animal we spring into action to help it and we pat ourselves on the back for "caring for animals".

********** never rests.

He won't be happy until the Democrat Party is the only party to vote for in the U.S.
He won't stop until we all stop exhaling out carbon dioxide when we breathe.
And he won't be satisfied until every last cute baby seal is mounted on the mantle piece of his energy efficient home.

Damn him! Damn him to hell!!!

Thats very sad so young :disgust

********** isn't young. :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh

That is true, but that does not make it "right".

Breeding animals for human consumption should have never happened thousands of years ago..... i know there must have been some extreme scenario that pushed a human over the edge to think "hey, i'm going to take this life, to eat", since we have so many other things in the world, pick apples and mangos off trees, potatoes and peanuts from the ground, etc etc

What drove mankind to this shit. And then there's those little dick motherfuckers still out there who still think "im a meat eater! i drink beer! i have a ford truck or a jeep and i'm 100% born and bred American (or whichever country)" retarded :disgust

Really fucked up. I understand that the people who live really far North eat Seal Meat and its a way of life and survival for them, but killing them for fur is fucking disgusting. Killing any animals for their fur is wrong in my opinion.

:2 cents: :thumbsup

It also because the seal reproduce too fast and if they dont kill some to control the population the seal are going to run out of fish and then starve.

''DFO has conducted extensive scientific research, in collaboration with independent scientific experts and the fishing industry, to improve our understanding of the complex relationships between grey seals and other components of the Atlantic coastal ecosystem, including Atlantic cod.

While much research remains to be done, the lack of cod recovery in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence appears to be due to high mortality among larger cod. Predation by grey seals may account for up to 50 percent of this natural mortality, making them a major factor limiting the recovery of this cod stock. The Department continues to study the interaction between grey seals in Quebec and Atlantic Canada and this information will be used to inform management of both the seal harvest and the cod fishery.''

Thousands years ago it was a question of survival. You didnt have the luxury to be picky about what you eat like you can today. I mean some people even die from stupid thing like the scorbut because fruits and vedgies where not alway available to grow.

only killing "ugly" animals is ok.

"Mankind" as you put it, was not the ones to eat meat first as a primary dietary staple. That happened millions of years ago. The very reason we evolved from apes, where all other lines died off or remained largely unchanged was due to the shift to consuming meat and the resulting increased calories, protein and fat. it's why our brains tripled in size... why its evolved into what is often called "the most complex organization of matter in the universe" and why we've adapted to any and all environments, including space - where our nearest ancestors such as apes are still functioning at the equivalent of semi-retarded 3yr old human.
