About Me


Harp seals are undoubtedly some of the most beautiful and gentle creatures on earth. So why are they the victims of the largest slaughter of marine mammals on the planet?
Sadly, it seems, this gentle nature also plays a part in the animal's demise as the harp seals have the unfortunate status of ANNUALLY SUFFERING THE LARGEST SLAUGHTER OF ANY MARINE MAMMAL SPECIES ON THE PLANET. Read more about the harp seals and why this slaughter still continues...
Every spring, great numbers of harp seals gather together on the stark ice floes off the Canadian Atlantic coastline of Newfoundland, Labrador and Quebec to give birth to their babies.
Commonly referred to as "whitecoats", these famous babies are indescribably astounding in their innocence, individuality, and beauty. Their images have been captured in a thousand ways and distributed around the world to become one of the world's most recognizable and well known symbols of "cuteness" and innocent beauty.
It is ironic and sad to note that all this recognition does nothing to help their plight or future as these babies are the victims of a brutal annual massacre of their species by a politically driven, propaganda spewing government.
Save Baby Seals: End the Seal Hunt
Each year, hundreds of thousands of baby harp seals are slaughtered on the ice fields off Canada's east coast for their pelts. Over 95% of the seals killed during this hunt are just days or weeks old.
If you were to witness this cruelty personally, your heart would break. Newborn seals skinned or bled alive ... clubbed to death ... or shot and left wounded to die under the ice.
Visit StoptheSealHunt.ca today to take action! Join the largest growing community to end the seal hunt in the world.
In the past three years, nearly one million baby seals have been clubbed or shot to death. Shockingly, the hunt is subsidized by the Canadian government!
Please help us show the Canadian government the rest of the world will no longer stand for this inexcusable and senseless hunt.
