Well, the mass killing of innocent animals has begun in Canada. The plan is to kill about 272,000 young seals either by shooting them or beating them to death. Most of these seals are no more than two months old. These hunters are barbaric killers with little regard for the humane treatment of the animals. According to the
Canadian Press:

Animal rights activists observing the hunt Friday insisted that at least some sealers didn't abide by a new regulation designed to make the hunt more humane.
Sealers are to follow a three-step process in killing a seal: striking or shooting the animal, then checking the eye-blink reflex or skull palpitations for signs of life, followed by bleeding the animal by severing arteries under the flippers.
"This new requirement of bleeding out is not being done," said Sheryl Fink of the International Fund for Animal Welfare.
"One guy clubbed a seal and it escaped into the water, injured. ... It's the same as always. The hunters are rushing. They're not taking time. It's horrible out there." |
