TAGGED: Seals Canada Slaughter seal clubbing end

This year's seal massacre is finally over, but peta2's campaign to end it once and for all has only just begun.

It's clear that the Canadian seal slaughter is quickly losing favor and support: This year, about three-fourths of the seals who were expected to be bludgeoned or shot to death were spared. But we still need your help to make sure that Canada doesn't think the protests will end just because the killing has slowed.

Canadian officials may turn a blind eye to seals' immense suffering—but the outcry against the seal slaughter echoes around the globe. The European Union and the U.S. have banned seal products, and world leaders have spoken out against the massacre. Demonstrations from London to Hamburg and Los Angeles to Toronto have made the headlines, and kind people like you all over the world have sent a strong, united message that the seal bloodbath must end.

So how can you help stop this mass slaughter from ever happening again?

If you haven't already, urge Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee to use their clout to help stop the slaughter, since all eyes are on Canada as it prepares to host the 2010 Winter Olympics.
