Each year, the Canadian government allows sealers to beat and skin hundreds of thousands of seals. Baby seals, many of whom are only weeks old, have their skulls smashed in or are shot for their fur. Many of these gentle animals may not even have eaten their first solid meals or taken their first swim before they are slaughtered.
PETA and compassionate people worldwide – including countless Canadian citizens and a long list of celebrities and professional athletes – are calling for a permanent end to this cruel and needless massacre.
