The seal protesters try to humanize seals which is dangerous people seals are known to attack and injure. When people see images of animals cuddling with stars or read literature saying how sweet and innocent wild animals are they tend to think it’s an invitation to get too close. This leads to people endangering animals. Trying to swim with whales and “rescue ” baby seals on a beach then wonder why they are bitten or hurt. If you need a reason to end the seal hunt. End it so Paul Watson will be out of a job. Ending the seal hunt would drastically cut PETA’s IFAW’s, and Sea Shepard’s income.
