Another point I'd like to make is that the seal hunt is a way of life that has been passed down for generations. It is part of the culture of these people off the east coast.
I believe I don't have a right to criticize another peoples culture.
There's my 2 cents.  |
i do not know if you heard that 50% of those seals are skinned while still alive. to me the method of killing is just appauling.
