On that we agree. But it is still done annually. I've
seen three
disgustingly detailed films of harp seal harvests. The
last one was after
the Finns claimed to have altered their methods of
clubbing and skinning to
comply with new, humane methodology. And the pups still
bayed pitifully for
almost an hour after being skinned. I was grateful for
Greenpeace's action
as a watchdog on this issue, because assurances of
compliance by the hunters
were bogus. Whether anything has been accomplished in
enforcing compliance
is anyone's guess, but my guess is that it has not.


Why don't they kill the pups before skinning them?
