That's it, you people have lost your sainity, you've all been brainwashed by Canada thinking it's humane like a sociopath would. I'm joining Sea shepherd, the bashing of seals with clubs has no place in the modern world!

I've already seen how disgusting it is. I also can't believe how sick and gruesome you all are. A world where seals get clubbed for money isn't the world I want to live in. Now that I've seen your true colors, i'm moving to Gaia!

Well, I don't really think sealing with club is OK. I mean, yes some of you may think that if the hunter hit in proper ways and the seal will suffer less. But, isn't it better just to shoot them at their head with gun? That would perfectly give death to the animal instantly without making them suffer.

Also, those seals that got hunted are mostly pups. Why shouldn't we let them live to grow up and produce more generations? There are also many hungry artic carnivores that need those seal pups more than us such as Polar Bear, Artic Fox and Orca. Imagine if we reduce the number of seal pups, the predators have to hunt the adult seals instead, which lower their chance to get food.

If You ask me, the best sealing is about hunting full grown seal, maybe only male(for the specie with sex differences.) and using only guns to shoot them. Beating seal pups with club don't sound right to me.

So your are joining an eco-terrorist group to oppose all those who disagree with you? Funny that seal clubbing has no place in the modern world, yet terrorism does.

As most of you know, we Canadians are running a 'secret' brainwashing operation to reprogram all hose who disagree with the seal hunt. I hope you realize how ridiculous you sound.

Do you eat meat, or even milk. Those animals are treated a lot less humanely than seals.

A world where people starve to death & idiocy reigns in the first world isn't a world I want to live in. The humane & ecologically responsible killing of animals on the other hand; is not something I lose sleep over.

Seems like a bit of an extreme response to having people disagree with you.

Just what makes you think this is necessary, and don't say it's a source of income, because there are other sources.

Have you ever been to Newfoundland? Most people aren't exactly rich (they aren't dirt poor either, but they are far from well off) & the seal hunt is actually a very important source of income.

Also, I think it is okay to kill an animal as long as it is ecologically responsible, humane & it is killed for a reason. The seals hunt has to obey strict quotas, the death has been ruled humane by veterinarians & other experts & the seals' fur is used & the flesh is eaten. Almost nothing is wasted.

I still don't get why do they have to hunt seal pups? They are easier to hunt? Have better quality fur?

I think hunting hunting adult seal with guns or gaff is enough. Adult of some large species have meat nearly as much a large pig!

Correct me if I miss something though.

Actually it is illegal to hunt seal pups or mothers here in Canada :) .

I don't agree with seal hunting either, but you cannot attack other members like this just because of your disagreement, you've been warned.

He has every right to continue this conversation. Continue to exhibit this kind of behaviour and you'll get a warn.

On-topic, I think that as long as it is the killing of mature animals and nothing is wasted, I can agree with the seal killing. I don't support it, but I can see why it is done and don't oppose it either.
However, the killing of seal cubs should be strictly forbidden.
