I support this petition. I'd been giving serious thought to visiting Norway in 06 or 07, but after reading of their policies concerning seals, I won't be spending my tourist dollars there or buying anything produced there. Signed, Ashamed to be Norwegian..
So sad...... In the year 2006, to feel like hunting defenseless animals, when at the same time you can have almost everything. Food, clothes, real sports to kill your leisure time. These people deserve the worst death. I curse them to suffer in their lives as much as they make the baby seals suffer.
I support this petition.
I live in Norway and it is absolutely a shame to find out that in a "rich country" like this, authorities approve this kind of sport. This is a brutal way to think to bring tourism.
I belive that the tourists you go simply to hunt seals for kicks or trophies. do have a problem. BUT the Norwegian people have historically relied on seal meat to keep them trough the long winters. The fact you can6t farm seals means you have to kill them in the wild (hunting)would you opponants be keen on banning americans farming and killing cattle of the french eating horses. is it ok becuace these animals have been caged their whole lives. The cull is a nessecity as when the seal population goes uncontroled they desimate other animal stocks and eventualy starve or we get the seal plague as we did in the 90's. Ok it is sad when we see images of dead baby seals (ever seen veal before it gets to the supermarket shelves) but it is much more humane to shot the cub first than risking shoting the mother only and leaving the cub to starve. it not always as cut and dry as some of you may think.
Hello!
I live in Norway.
Why do some of you tell your opp. without knowing enything about Norways history in hunting and fishing?
Why do people live here? What do people here live "from"?...
Try to act for peace or something more fact / nature / history-based!!
I feel very sorry for this kind of minimum knowingbased nameactions..
Many Of You People have never had to survive outside the citycomfort. If you had you would have had an totaly diff. opp. !!
Thanks!
Best/Niclas,
if this is Norway's attempt at increasing tourism, then it can rest assured that i will NEVER visit. Consider yourselves the neanderthals that you are, whom i thought had been extinct, but apparently have made a comeback. well maybe we should regroup and clobber the norwegian/neanderthals to see how they feel - just for old times sake.

Wait til they come up for Air and use the Club.
That way you don't waste Ammo.
Fresh Baby Seal Ribs on the grill.
Almost a good as spotted Owl.
Do you need a hunting license to bash in there skulls?
Do tree Huggers count againest your license if you knock them in the head while waiting for the baby seals to come up for Air then bash there skulls in?
Non dovrebbe esserci il bisogno di lottare contro cattiverie del genere. Dopo migliaia di anni l'uomo non ha ancora capito che si pu vivere anche pacificamente con tutti gli esseri viventi? Se tutti facessero un piccolo passo cambierebbe molto...
Siete dei bastardi figli di puzzole.
One day God will judge you but for the moment i got to tell you that this is murdering a property of the people of the whole world. Eagles with the white head do not exist anymore and the reason they used was that eagles would eat to many rabbits, like nowadays with these baby seals the industry backed by the govt. recalls that they eat to much fish, therefore let's kill'em.
Well I tell you a thing my friends: we all live under the same sky and we also could see our own children being beaten with a bat and dye after our very eyes. At that point seals will be the comparison term for human. You shall pay in full and times seven and will burn in hell for the eternity until the seventh generation from you will becleaned from the sin you are committing in these days in front of God and of the whole Humanity. Siete dei bastardi figli di puzzole.
They look cute, but God put them there for us to eat. Should we kill the killer whales because they eat the seals? Or should we force them to eat other things? Nature is a habitat of carnivores as well as herbivores.
