Seal Hunt Again
The U.S. Humane society is announcing a boycott of Canadian Fish in protest over the new Seal hunt. My question with the boycott is their reasons for having it. To suggest that this is because of any abuse of the animals is asinine. More animals are abused in the U.S. in the name of research than will be killed here, not to mention the subject of the food industry and their practices. I actually agree with the ban, but for different reasons. My reasons have to do with the fact of the highly suspect science that is stated as the cause for allowing the hunt in the first place and the Canadian Government's refusal to re-examine the evidence after so many experts have recommended that they do so.
