I wrote to the newspaper when I heard about the babyseal hunting had been opened up again. I was told the reason was that there is very little work in the area the seals are being killed and that the increased demand from Russia for the pelts. I hate that this is happening and I wish somebody would find a more humane way to accomplish this "feat". My hope is that they would be put on the endangered species list, if there is the killing at the rate you stated it shouldn't take long. Perhaps the Russian countries would join the rest of the world and not desire the wares from the skins of these beautiful creatures.
I have to admit that I turn a blind eye to somethings that offend me (like this does) because I am unable to do anything to stop it. Admittedly a coward.
