Putting Virtual Seal Slaughterers in Their Place April 14, 2009

This past Saturday, we joined many others in World of Warcraft to battle four Horde seal killers to bring light to the current slaughter that's going on in Canada. Many joined our fight, including the mother seals who killed a bunch of Horde to stop them from bashing their seal babies' heads in. It makes you wonder how many baby seals would be killed in Canada if the mother seals were an equal match for the seal murderers

Though many additional Horde members came to slaughter seals and at times the Alliance were outnumbered, the battle was overall successful. Because of this battle, there are so many more people who know about the seal slaughter and exactly what happens to baby seals.



So thank you to all of those who came out to try to stop the seal slaughter. To learn more about how you can help IRL (that's "in real life", n00bs), please click here.

Help Battle Seal Slaughterers in World of Warcraft! April 6, 2009

The fight against the Canadian seal slaughter has gone digital!

That's right, gamers, get ready: This Saturday, World of Warcraft (WoW) players will have the opportunity to combat a team of four Horde seal killers. We need your help to stop them from bashing in the heads of any more seals!

Thrall refused to ban the slaughter of seals, despite multiple requests from the Alliance to do so, because Orgrimmar stands to make a large profit from the fur.

Activists from across the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor are banding together to put a stop to the atrocious seal slaughter. Anyone who slaughters baby seals for their fur must surely be in service to the evil Lich King.

Here's what you need to know in order to battle:

• You must be in the WhisperWind realm in order to fight. Visit WorldofWarcraft.com if you need information about how to switch into this realm.
• Once in the WhisperWind realm, go to Northrend, where you will find a zone called Howling Fjord, where the baby seals live on glaciers and boats float in the fjords. This will be the battleground to stop the slaughter. (Note: You must be at least a Level 70 player in order to enter Howling Fjord.)
• The battle will take place on Saturday, April 11, at 1 p.m. EST.

Make sure to check out videos about the upcoming battle here, and use our Facebook event to get all your friends to join you in the fight. Be sure to check back for the battle coordinates.

Think you can stop the seal killers?

UPDATE: The battle will be taking place at coordinates 79, 73 on the southeastern coast of Howling Fjord, due south of the Explorers League Outpost.

(Did all this WoW talk go right over your head? Don't be embarrassed—maybe you should just sit this round out and stick to helping seals on Facebook!)
