There are literally dozens of seals for every 1 person in Newfoundland Labrador. If they weren't culled, the little bastards would overrun the island! They are not endangered or anything like that.

and yeah, I called them little bastards- seals are not nice creatures. Sure they're all cute and fuzzy as babies, but give them 10 days and they're copulating like bunnies to make more obnoxious sea-rats. Seriously. Not pleasant creatures.

I'm not saying they should be tortured to death or anything,b ut there is nOTHING wrong with the seal hunt, at all! In fact, they could probably do with upping the number allowed to be killed, for the good of the rest of the population, however articles like that one, from uninvolved and uninformed british press, means that nice liberal and progressive Canada just can't do it.
