Canada Seal pups killed for profit, Polar Bear killed for fun. How sick a country is it?

Question

With the loss of ice flow with global warming Polar Bears have now lost habitat and no longer have the expanse of ice to roam. So Canada still allows this magnificent animal to be shot for fun. I thought the torture and killing of seal pups a few days old was sick but this is diabolical.

Answer 1

Agreed.

Answer 2

LC id like to know who told you that seal fur is sold to  UK. i never seen it worn by anyone. we are very much against the fur trade. and as for horse meat????? we do not eat horse ever. you try finding some on our supermarket shelves. you wont

Answer 3

Yes, it is very sick! I joined a protest many years ago for the Harp seals. The only thing that has changed since is the "quota" which is now 200,000 i think. It blows my mind but the locals in those areas say that those are the only jobs available there and they need to survive. 99% of that fur is sold to the UK. Same with our Horse meat packing plants...It's mostly sold to the UK. As for the Polar bears, many of them venture into the surrounding towns for food and they get killed for "the safety of people". I hate it but obviously it won't change

Answer 4

I don't know what's wrong with the leaders of Canada, but North America is the same way.  Developers are cutting down the forests left and right, now they are encouraging deer hunters to kill the 'extra' deer--they are not really extra, it's just that humans have stolen their homes!  It's disgusting.  My aunt and uncle lets them go on their land to hunt.  I never thought I'd see the day, I thought they were avid animal lovers--I was wrong!  Why don't they hunt humans--I know this sounds awful, but why are they killing innocent animals?

Answer 5

ANY cruelty to ANY animal is SICK! heartless scum these people!!

Answer 6

Theres a lot more worse in the world.

Answer 7

Well... we are a democracy (we kill people) they are... who knows what...

Answer 8

It makes your blood boil at the frustration of not being able to stop this carnage by morons who think killing things is fun.

Answer 9

The north is f**ked up in Canada, the Natives are having a hard time governing themselves even after we gave them a huge amount of land. Suicide rates are highest in the North, problems with Drug Abuse and homicide.

The Natives had been doing the Seal hunt tradition for years before we came about. However, if we where to restrict them from their "Culture" the Liberals will be all over us about "Freedom and Heritage" c**p, so sadly there is not much too do. It's either save the creatures and take away the Natives traditions, or allow it to be moderated. (Currently their are quotas set up to monitor the populations).
