To me it is a massacre of wildlife. I believe this population should be left. It should not be hunted commercially for fur coats. I believe this hunt is a very large-scale, very intensive hunt that occurs over a couple of days during the year. This is the world's largest slaughter of marine mammals. In the past three years, more than one million seals have been killed. Yes, it is a massacre.
