It's about the seal slaughter in Canada,

http://alop.org/animal-news/news141800.htm

The main thing is that, they kill more seals then any other animal and most of the dead seals never even get used for anything. We basically stunt their entire evolution each year by making then start over.

My thing is let the mammals of the sea be, it's a another world and we should stick to ours. Fish are the exception because they have no conscious basically here just be ate.
Yeah, what that DOESN'T tell you though is that massive overfishing by the US and spain just outside (and sometimes inside) canadian territorial waters has depleted cod stocks so much that the seals have to be trimmed down just to keep the fish population from being totally destroyed.

Don't want seals wiped out? Shoulda thought of that years ago before pulling in 5x legal catch limits and not giving a fuck about what tomorrow would bring. Maybe the boycott should be on the over-fishing assholes what caused the problem to begin with.
