It's official: Caribbean monk seal is now extinct
Only seal species to vanish due to human impacts; two other species at risk.
Congratulation to all the AR people who have sacrificed their time and energy to try and help the seal populations of the world. Keep up the good work.

But, lets us not worry about seal species that really need help and protection. It's, after all, just one species of seal has gone extinct. Rather lets us focus our attention on the most heavily populated seal in the world. The harp seal of eastern Canada with a population estimated last year at 6 million.
But wait just one minute here, would the reason the animal rights people have never said word one about the monk seal have anything to do with money?? The harp seal in Canada with their vast numbers brings in millions of dollars in donations and the monk seal brings in no donations. NAH-animal rights would never do that to us!!

Well isn't this just wonderful Devon ??!!!
ReplyDeleteSeals going extinct in the Caribbean ,Deer being hunted to extinction in Labrador .NOT ONE WORD from the ARA's !!Dolphins and sharks in the USA and they have a seal cull also !! But NO !! Let's drive the Newfoulnland sealers crazy and protest their hunt on a population of seals that has grown fron 1.5 million to present day 6 million ?? No ,of course it's not about the money ...yeah, right !!!
Is Don serious? Are there really 6 million seals here in Eastern Canada? How much fish would 6 million seals eat every day?
