The Canadian seal slaughter began bright and early on Monday morning, and IFAW was there to capture some disturbing video of the massacre that is laughably called a "hunt." Though, honestly, I can't laugh. It's simply revolting to watch these killers motor along in their bloody vessels and hook live, defenseless seals off their tiny ice floes and beat them to death on the deck of the boat. Frankly, this diabolical butchery is emblematic of all animal exploitation, and a reminder that it's the very defenselessness of animals against human greed that demands their rights be protected by our own laws, laws that are ostensibly meant to guide our behavior.
Take action now.
