A Word From Our Sealers


Jack Troake, a fisherman and sealer from Twillingate in central Newfoundland. Last Sunday, Mr. Troake left for the Labrador seal hunt, as he has nearly every spring for four decades. Sealing is a dangerous, gruelling pursuit, Mr. Troake said, conducted solely to put food on the tables of families in struggling, rural communities. "It's not pretty," said Mr. Troake, who is in his early 70s. "You kill any of God's creatures and it's not pretty."It's 'not pretty,' but seal business thrives

Amen to that.

  1. JUST WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THIS FISHERMEN REALLY NEED PROGESIONAL ASSISTANCE DOCTOR AS THE WAY YOU ARE KILLING AND SLAUGHTERING ANOTHER ANIMAL OR HUMAN BEING IS SOMETHING THAT MADE PEOPLES OF EUROPEAN UNION, AUSTRALIA, UNITED STATES AND MEXICO SHOCKED AND OUTRAGED AGAINST THIS WAY OF LEAVING. YOU ARE REALY WILD SALVAGE FULL OF ANGER. MOST AND MANY MORE COUNTRIES WILL BAN IMPORT OF SEAL PRODUCTS.
    AND PEOPLE WHO HAVE DIED FISHING AND KILLING YOUNG SEALS FOR MONEY NOT FOR THEY OWN FOOD LIKE ONE OR TWO SPECIES THEY GOT WHAT MATURE NATURE DOES TO KILLERS AND DESTROYERS OF EARTH NATURE. MOTHER NATURE IS GOING TO REDUCE NUMBER OF THIS SORT OF PEOPLES. SO WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND AND THEY HAVE GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED. MOTHER NATURE WILL FIGHT AGAINST PEOPLE LIKE THIS ANYWAY.SOON THEY WILL DIE OF HUNGER COLD OR WHATEVER.
