 A Pro Perspective on the Candian Harp Seal Hunt
A Pro Perspective on the Candian Harp Seal Hunt
A great website with the other side of the story. They post and respond to the hate mail and encourage an open dialog - makes for great bedtime reading.

It's really important for people to have holistic educated views on the facts of an issue before damning the people involved. This site uses the fact for it's own biases, but no more than anti-seal hunting groups.

It's so easy to fall into the "don't kill cute animals!" mentality. And I just ask people to think with facts instead of emotions.
