Maybe if more people were educated as to how the fur was come by they wouldn't want to wear it. If there was no demand for it, it would stop. How can they sleep at night!

There are millions of seals around the world they compete with humans for food. They kill a lot of salmon and other seafood we eat Most of the seal hunting is done by the natives as a way of life. They eat some of meat It sounds like a terrible practice but it’s been going on for thousands of years Not everyone will agree on this or any other topic

luckycatfay, no need to be vegan. God did not intend man to be vegan. He gave us food to eat. But to hunt seal for their fur, barbaric indeed. I can understand the native people.

TRUE CANADIAN Laurel, I was wondering if you would respond to this information. I am proud of you! This is truly outrageous and like other blood sports - bull fighting, fox hunting, dog fighting, cockfighting - should NEVER be permitted by law in any country. Hunting for food is the exception. Killing animals for their fur (and so cruelly!) for $$ is vicious, barbaric and psychopathic. Find a new profession. SHAME‼️

Janette #10054227, I don’t think it is a large as Greenland hunt. The quota is never reached and most of the hunt by Innu ppl

Disgusting and barbaric! Sadly, most countries simply consider animals to be commodities, possessing no feelings, having no rights, here for humans to do as they please with ....makes me ill. 😑

It continues because people still want seal skin. Stop the demand and the hunt will shrink or disappear entirely.

TRUE CANADIAN Laurel, it will be great if someone living in the country this happens in, stand up against it.

Those aristocrat ladies are too selfish, and sealers too greedy, for this cruelty to halt...

I thought it would have to be Denmark with the barbaric way they kill dolphins in the Faroe Islands. They kill over 20,000 in a single 'hunt'. They herd the pods of mothers and calves, males too and the water turns red from all the blood..

Didn't realise it was still going on. The industry will probably have more demand on it since they have had to euthanise millions of farmed minks recently due to a SARs like scare.

check the source of this. this information is of obvious political slant. only natives perform this, and it is very sustainable.
