Just because doing something is tradition doesn't make it right, and we have no obligation to respect a cultural tradition that isn't based in sound moral judgment. <br /><br />Animals are moral patients that deserve our consideration because they are capable of suffering just as we are. I think it's fine that people eat meat; most of the people I live with and talk with do. My boyfriend does. As long as people treat animals with respect and give them a good life up until the end, not a life of immense suffering, then eating meat can be perfectly justifiable.<br /><br />@Ger: Seals are not responsible for overfishing, humans are: <a href="https://confluence.furman.edu:8443/display/GGY230F10/Overfishing+and+Its+Effect+on+the+Environment" rel="nofollow">look here</a>.<br /><br />3/11/2012Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733227.post-63079630259152730032012-01-01T09:05:20.056-05:002012-01-01T09:05:20.056-05:00Cows live in a pen for their entire life only to h...Cows live in a pen for their entire life only to have a pneumatic bolt shot into their skull. Baby seals grow up to deplete fish stocks to near disasterous levels. Think of it like this, if you were a farmer and you let rabbits breed freely what issues would you have? Sure seals are cute, but their natural predators are few and far between, and left unchecked entire industries would crumble as well as the villages they support.Gerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17459967610705124439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733227.post-2150551315665087582011-11-12T14:06:10.442-05:002011-11-12T14:06:10.442-05:00that is just plan wrongthat is just plan wrongAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733227.post-65071250979318292742011-11-12T14:04:33.252-05:002011-11-12T14:04:33.252-05:00That is just plain wrong.That is just plain wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733227.post-16985086423347170122011-11-12T14:03:40.649-05:002011-11-12T14:03:40.649-05:00that is just plan wrong.that is just plan wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733227.post-24432766742543331522011-10-25T05:52:18.311-04:002011-10-25T05:52:18.311-04:00they are just babies it's not the same as adul...they are just babies it's not the same as adults and i don't support killing animals, i think they should be allowed to be treated without cruelty, people who keep using the " but you eat meat" crap, this does not justify humanity's wrongdoings no matter who eats what.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733227.post-74690290102300462882011-10-23T06:07:06.989-04:002011-10-23T06:07:06.989-04:00But hunting seals is great fun.

If you don't, you have a tiny shred more of my respect then you would have otherwise, because at least you're standing by what you say. Even if you are vegetarian (which I was for quite a few years; now I eat free-range local meat) you have no right to come down on a cultural tradition and a legitimate hunting season. <br /> <br />"In Real Life"... Hah. Please, don't tell me what real life is like in Canada. For the few Canadians who do participate in the Seal Hunt, it is a matter of survival and no one who lives outside of the harsh Canadian arctic can criticize.<br /> <br /> It may not be attractive, but it is regulated, humane, and honestly I think it is a beautiful part of Inuit culture, as they would not have been able to survive without the seal hunt. <br /> <br />Another thought- Don't put all your faith in one source (i.e. PETA). Too many people will believe one single information source without doing any research. Being concerned with animal rights and having been vegetarian for a number of years, I still say that PETA is propaganda. <br /> <br />Have fun in your nice cozy electrically heated house, <br /><br />Eric from the Great White North.<br /><br />p.s.

Even America can't be chastised for slaughtering baby seals, like Canada can."<br /><br />Millions of Cows, and live stock are killed every year. Animals are hunted with guns by people who they can not even see. You think clubbing seals is any worse then a cow sitting in a hold having a metal bit go through its head?<br /><br /><br /><br />"no - really - they actually do that in real life in Canada"<br /><br />Real life in Canada you make it seem like we all do that. That's just as ignorant as calling all Americans fat but even less true. There is probably less then a thousand people who hunt seals in the Canadian north out of 30 million people.
