I recall reading an artical talking about why Canada allows the hunt.

Ther r not enough predators on those ice flows to keep the seal population down.

The seals are over populated & eating too many sea creatures (fish) & rish the faster extinction on Cod.

The only thing I dissagree with is leaving the bodies there. They should start a program to collect the bodies & send them to an area where polar bears r. That'll help the bears out & it'll help the fox out as well.



just think of how over populated the seals would be if the 300,000 wasn't killed / year. It would be crazy.

Just look at the Ottawa deer population. Its really bad. Deer r everywhere & many r thin. the trees in the bush r stripped bare. There just isn't enough food & WAY too many deer.

It was a couple years back that 5000 female deer tags were not used near Ottawa. Now those deer have 1-2 babies & then those deer have babies. Its like that cat chart. It starts off as 2 & ends at over population.

I know people don't like to hear it, but some animals do need to be hunted (for food not sport, I'm against sport/head hunters).

Its all our fault for killing so many wolves & cougars & not allowing bow hunting within city limits.

Ottawa is a Mega city. It merged with surounding towns & cities. & inbetween many & pretty much all towns was a LOT of forest. Why can't bow hunters hunt there?? ther r NO people in there, only too many deer.


over population = lose of plantlife (if the deer ear too much bark all the way around a tree, it'll kill the whole tree).
Its means illness & lots of wasted animals roting everywhere & the illness could be passed onto cattle (cattle doesn't mean cows in Canada, it means 1-2 hoved farm animals).

Just look at how many times they've had to kill Bisson herds due to over popullation causeing illness, which WILL be passed onto cattle.
