Need a reason to help seals? How about 14?
Did you know that during Canada’s annual seal slaughter, sealers routinely hook live seals in the eye, cheek, or mouth to avoid damaging the fur and then drag the seals across the ice with a hakapik. Many of these young, gentle creatures may not even have eaten their first solid meal or taken their first swim before they are slaughtered for their fur.

There are so many easy ways to speak out against the Canadian seal slaughter, and we want to show you just how easy it is. Here are five things that you can do right now to help end this annual barbaric slaughter:

peta2 Street Team Coordinator + lover of vegan food, cats, animal rights, Dawson's Creek, and Harry Potter.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

Killers!!!! Disgusting people who do this to these adorable
seals are just plain CRAZY!!!!! You go in their habitant and invade on them, it just wrong!!!
It is just not necessary. Leave them alone!!!!! Seals are just going about their lives, or trying to. they don’t bother us. They have a “RIGHT” to live just as we do.
Look at that seal in the picture, (at top), It says it all.

Write your congressman, white house, senators, mayors, and any one of your friends that want to but the hell out of these idiots that have their head between up their butts tnat don’t take the quality of life seriously. Hell they they don’t even take the soldiers lives seriously while the President is having tea and crumpets with the queen, the rest of the government is running around going whatdo we do now? How about letting animals be slaughtered not just here but in Canada too? Get busy guys and look outside the circle and though it may not be a big deal to you it is to us who love these and other animals and don’t forget this is an election year. Get some guts and reach outside of your circle and quit passing the buck and take a chance and help the seals. Do some good. Then pat your selves on the back ok?

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS DREADFUL CRUELTY IS ALLOWED BY THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT, THE KILLING OF SEALS MUST BE BANDED AND MADE A CRIMINAL OFFENSE RIGHT NOW. THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR ALLOWING THIS BARBARIC AND HORRENDOUS CRUELTY TOWARDS DEFENSELESS SEALS – SHAME ON YOU CANADIAN GOVERNMENT, SHAME ON YOU.

The seal plushie (and Kali) are absolutely adorable! I’ve already did 4 of the 5 (I can’t exactly do the school one since I am homeschooled) so I get to be entered to win it! My birthday is May 30th so winning would be a great belated birthday present.

Great sadness about this. My prayer is their hearts will be convicted of this cruel perversion and that they will learn to slaughter without animal suffering, as God intended for them to be subjected and cared for under us but not to be subject to suffering and cruelty!

I do it by hitting “Prnt Scrn” on my keyboard and then opening paint and hitting “Ctrl” + “v”. All you have to do next is save it as a JPG file.
