For 140 days starting July 1st the Namibian government permits the killing of 85,000 nursing baby cape fur seals. This is on the pretext of having employment for 120 unskilled workers living in cardboard shacks near the seal colony. The leaders of Namibia should think of another way to provide employment for 120 people. These massacres have been going on for the last number of years and continues today. Lets stop this slaughter of baby cape fur seals once and for all.

This is absolutely disgusting. How on earth could you ever come up with an idea to provide jobs by using murder? That's ridiculous. I would gladly donate money to help these people, killing innocent animals isn't the way.

all babies deserve to have a chance to live life and not be murdered, 120 people can find jobs some where else.

This is sick and wrong. When will people stop going to the extreme just for money. The world revolves around money these day, and people will do anything they can for it, which what they are doing is killing for money.

120 unskilled workers who have experienced the thrill of killing an animal could go on and kill human beings - lets hope they begin with those who want these poor defenceless creatures killed

and do we not by now know that animals are vital to our own survival? this is pitiful and speaks of the lack of compassion that the powers that are have no conscience either to the animals, their environment and their fellow man. its a very sad time indeed

This barbaric and insensitive behaviour cannot and should not be condoned. To create jobs on the basis of killing is disgusting - surely seals that are alive can be a pull card for tourists - how about skilling 120 people in tourism-related professions, and each year you can grow the 'come see the seals' campaign instead of killing them off? why not get 120 people to research the behaviour of the seals and com;ile a research eport on how to harness the animals as a tourism opportunity? Why not create alternative employment - employment that won't emotionally scar those involved. Have you ever clubbed a baby seal? Do you know how emotionally shattering it is? Now you want to indice 120 people into such murderous activity and scar them all for life - just so that they can live in a shack for another year untill next year they can club seals again. This is not empowering the people of Namibia, it is atrocious.
