“Humanity’s true moral test, its fundamental test (which lies deeply buried from view), consists of its attitude towards those who are at its mercy: animals.”
Milan Kundera The Unbearable Lightness of Being, 1984
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated " Mahatma Gandhi
The Canadian seal hunt is the largest slaughter of marine mammals on Earth.
More than 1 million baby seals have been killed for their fur in the past four years alone – you can help us put an end to this shameful atrocity today!
The whole world reacted with horror to 2007's images of ice floes bloodied with the carcasses of hundreds of thousands of baby seals whose skins had been ripped from their backs.
The gruesome scene will soon be repeated again this year. Caring individuals like you need to speak out and demand a permanent end to the cruel seal hunt.
Despite an international outcry, the Canadian government gave the go-ahead for hunters to bludgeon to death 270,000 baby harp seals last year.
We must generate an international outcry against the Canadian government for sanctioning it, ensuring that this year's hunt is the last.
Please write to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper
and let him know that it's time for Canada to erase this stain on its reputation and put a permanent end to the massacre.
