Several celebrities, including “90210” actress Jennie Garth, are speaking up in a “Save the Seals: End Canada’s Seal Slaughter” campaign.
The Canadian government allows sealers to beat and skin hundreds of thousands of seals, including baby seals, each year, according to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). PETA, Canadian citizens, and celebrities such as Garth, Jorja Fox, Steve O, Brody Jenner, Holly Madison, Kelly Osbourne, and Perez Hilton are calling for an end to this “cruel and needless massacre,” PETA reported.
The European Union’s ban on seal products and the U.S. Senate’s resolution to end seal slaughter are major steps in the right direction, but there is still much to be done to stop the slaughter forever, according to PETA.

The US senate can't end the Canadian seal hunt. The Eu let's their own member countries cull seals. The US has also culled sea lions last year to save salmon. These celebs are being used by PETA and it appears none of them has even did any research into how the seal hunt is conducted. Instead they listen to their PETA friends and look at very heavily edited video clips from years ago. Pick a Cause that saves children from war, hunger, rape and prostitution. Do something useful for a change instead of trying to save a seal herd that is growing out of control and left unchecked will be starving themselves to death after they use all the resources where ever they go and they will spread south. They already are if you look at the news. Don't cuddle them, they will eat your face off.
I agree with newfile2. Jennie Garth isn't all that bright anyway!
Seals look so cuddly. Save them all.
if we do more to protect the natural predators of seals we won`t have to worry about their population numbers
