Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 MORE INFO:http://www.stopthesealhunt.com http://www.hsus.org/protect_seals.html 5 Ways You Can Help Stop Canada's Seal Hunt 1) Write a Letter to Save a Seal Canada’s commercial seal hunt is the only legal and government-sanctioned hunt in Canada that allows hunters to exclusively target baby animals – the overwhelming majority between 2 and 12 weeks old. Urge your representative to support US Senate Resolution 33 calling for an end to Canada’s commercial seal hunt before millions more baby seals die an unnecessary and cruel death. 2) Sign the Petition to Prime Minister Harper The truth is the first victim of this year's commercial seal hunt. Speaking on CNN’s Larry King Show, the Premier of Newfoundland & Labrador made some shocking and false statements about IFAW and the seal hunt. The public deserves a commitment to honesty and respect for the real facts about the killing of baby seals. Sign the petition urging Canada’s Prime Minister to tell the truth about what’s happening on the ice. 3) Make a Donation to Stop the Seal Hunt Each spring IFAW brings international journalists and politicians to observe Canada’s commercial seal hunt, resulting in growing condemnation of the hunt around the world. Thanks in large part to IFAW’s efforts, legislation that will ban seal products is advancing in a number of countries, such as the Belgium, Italy and the Netherlands. Ending the seal hunt requires a variety of effective measures carried out by effective organizations such as IFAW. Your contribution is needed to help us continue to document the cruelty occurring on the ice this spring and expose the truth. 4) Tell Others to Help Protect Baby Seals It only takes a few seconds to spread the word about the cruelty of Canada’s seal hunt and our efforts to end it, yet the impact on the campaign is enormous. Please invite your friends, family, and colleagues to help save the seals. 5) Sign Up for Email Action Alerts Find out the latest news about the seal hunt and our efforts to stop it, as well as other campaigns to protect and save animals around the world. You’ll be the first to see the newest videos of the hunt and read witness accounts of what’s happening out on the ice. You can make a difference. The actions taken by our supporters have been in crucial in helping IFAW win a variety of campaigns, including a ban on hunting with dogs in the UK, a European ban on the import of seal skins from young hooded and harp seals and saving a critical Pacific Gray Whale birthing lagoon in Mexico from development. So please do what you can right now. 2006 International Fund for Animal Welfare Privacy Statement | Contact Us | Site Map Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
