Default IFAW - Saving Harp Seals

http://www.ifaw.org/ifaw/general/default.aspx?oid=21446

Saving Harp Seals



The Canadian government has announced plans to expand the seal hunt
and permit the deliberate culling of nearly one million seals over
three years... the highest level of government-sanctioned cruelty to
seals since the 1960s.



IFAW led the campaign to "Save the Seals" in the 1970's. Now we need
your help to stop this latest attack on defenseless seal pups.







IFAW Takes Action to End the Hunt
The seal hunt starts this week and IFAW is on the ice. Read our field
notes and view our photos and footage each day. Find out how you can
help stop the cruelty.

Sign our
"Million Signatures
for a Million Seals"
Petition

http://www.ifaw.org/ifaw/general/default.aspx?oid=85044

The Canadian government's plan to deliberately cull the harp seal herd
has no scientific justification and is out of step with modern
science. Sign our petition to call for an end to this cruel hunt.





PETITION TO THE CANADIAN HOUSE OF COMMONS



I, the undersigned, am deeply opposed to Canada’s plan to slaughter
nearly one million seals over a three-year period - the highest quota
in history. The vast majority of these animals (95%) are just days or
weeks old and continuing to ignore the cruelty and waste inherent in
this industry is simply unacceptable. Please act immediately to end
this abuse and repair the damage to Canada's reputation as a humane
and ecologically responsible society.

Keep supporting the cull and you might find that's all you're left to
eat if the world boycotts CA.

I wrote a letter to Newfoundland about this very thing and they were
very helpful. I don't like these namby-pamby sealskin coats that are
all nice and fluffy. I dress in my own punk style. They had a special
coat made up for me out of some old boiler of a Cod Inhaler they ran
over with a boat [& shot several times] It is absolutely Bee-youti-
Full! It has propeellor lacerations and more bullet holes than Sonny
Corleone. Hip & Punk, that coat has it all!



Cheerio


Yes they are good too.

Thanks to ******s like you, I have choosen not to go on vacation in the
Great "Hypocrite" Britian region. Instead, I will stay in Canada, and spend
my money here... Honestly, having walked this earth more then once, the
Brits are as arrogant and ignorant as the Americans anyways, I'm much
happier here.

The money saved I will take a longer vacation in Asia later this year...
Maybe I will snack on some dog or cat while I'm there.

All the children dying all over the world through starvation, disease and
war, and what do the fat arsed, mushy minded leftists worry themselves over?
Seals. Then they'll waddle into Macdonalds in their Gucci sandles and slurp
back their big macs.


Protecting seals from deviants is the same as protecting children from
deviants, in fact protecting anything from deviants is a priority.

I bet you have a fair old waddle yourself crouton arse!

Hey, lameoid, there are literally MILLIONS and MILLIONS of seals. You could
at least worry over some endangered animals. Oh, but the baby seals are so
cuuuuuuuuuuuuuttttteeee. Ohhhh. Oooohhhh.


Got to stop the deviants here, before they start on the other wildlife
and the children, oops you already have.

Not when they get to be enormous, five hundred pound fish eating vacuums
cleaners, but hey, who wants to think about that, right? Fish are like,
slimy and stuff (ick!). Who cares about them!?


Don't eat fish either, in fact just get a life goofy.

A-MEN! There is nothing so stimulating and satisfying as fresh killed
wild meat, whether its any one of a hundred species of fish, duck or
goose, or whether its whale, deer, kangaroo, impala, springbok or pig.
Leave the grain stuffed tasteless beef and pork for the weak of
stomach, give me wild meat any day.

Oh yeah, meat eaters are better lovers.

- Interesting that you should feel a need to point that out. ..

'.. a high level of total cholesterol and a low level of high
density lipoprotein cholesterol are important risk factors
for erectile dysfunction. '
http://aje.oupjournals.org/cgi/conte...act/140/10/930

'Researchers have established that though erections can be
inspired by everything under the sun, ultimately they depend
on blood flow. And, just as blockages in the arteries to the
heart can cause a heart attack and choked-off blood to the
brain can lead to a stroke, when the arteries to the genitals
are clogged, that part of the body will not work so well either.
When the arteries are impeded only slightly, it takes longer
to get an erection. As the obstruction worsens, complete
impotence occurs. By age 60, this affects one in four
American men.

The bad news is that artery blockages, a major cause of
erectile dysfunction, are strongly linked to one of America's
most popular food categories-meat. The good news is that
such blockages can be prevented, and even reversed, by
changes in diet and lifestyle.

Breakthrough research by Dean Ornish, M.D., at the
University of California-San Francisco showed that a
combination of a low-fat vegetarian diet, moderate exercise,
stress management, and no smoking lets the arteries begin to
clean themselves out in 82 percent of patients. Many of the
other factors contributing to impotence, including diabetes,
obesity, and hypertension, can also be influenced by a menu
change. Side effects from various medications are another
root cause of impotence. In fact, two of the worst culprits are
blood pressure pills and cholesterol-lowering drugs, both
prescribed for conditions that could be dramatically improved
by a vegetarian diet. With the right food and exercise, many
men can cut back on, and even discontinue, drug therapy.
