Abstract A report to be released by the International Fund for Animal Welfare this week, ahead of Tuesday's launch of the hunt in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, says the harvest of up to 975,000 seals -- which occurs over a three year period -- will damage the marine mammal population. "Any pretense of a scientifically based . . . hunt has been abandoned and Canada's commercial seal hunt has become -- quite simply -- a cull, designed more to achieve short-term political objectives than those of a biologically sustainable hunt," says the report. Fishermen participating in the hunt blame seals and their voracious appetites for the decline in cod stocks, and argue a cull is exactly what is required.
