Alibaba: Stop selling seal fur & oil
Every year Canada and Namibia ruthlessly club, skin and bludgeon HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of baby seals. Independent veterinary studies have proven that seal pups are still alive when they are skinned.
Global e-commerce company, Alibaba.com features both seal oil and seal fur on it%u2019s website listings. These products are available to purchase from a variety of different Chinese suppliers.
Even though Alibaba.com has been made aware of the cruelty, they continue to stock seal products.
Help us close the market and end the cruelty. Alibaba.com,
Your website AliBaba.com features seal fur and oil products from both Namibia and Canada. Every year hundreds of thousands of baby seals are killed in some of the most brutal ways imaginable.
Sealers often rush the slaughter process so they can quickly move on to the next seal and get as many pelts as possible. The killing process is often conducted hurriedly thus inflicting more suffering on the seals. Many seals are clubbed repeatedly using pickaxes and clubs with metal spikes attached to them, they are then skinned alive. Some seals have their skulls bashed in and others have hooks forced into their eyes, mouths and bodies after which they are dragged across the ice and killed. All of these slaughter methods are far from humane and leave the seals in agonizing pain. The Namibian seal hunt is said to be the world%u2019s most brutal hunt, a hunt so brutal that seal pups vomit their own mothers milk in sheer terror.
Here is a video of seals being clubbed to death and skinned alive. I ask that you watch the video and educate yourself on the cruelty of the Namibian seal hunt:

I request that you stop selling all seal products which includes both seal fur, seal oil and any supplements containing seal. Please show some compassion and join countless other companies that choose not to stock seal products.
Thank you for your time.
