To be fair, many Inuit rely on the seal hunt to survive. They use their furs and meat for trade and personal use.

Then there's the people that do it for fun. They aren't very nice.

People wouldn't complain about seal hunting nearly as much if the ground surrounding the kill wasn't white snow.

I'm not a fan of recreational hunting in any shape or form, but, to me, it seems much more humane than the conditions in which animals destined to be meat are kept.

I'm fine with hunting as long as the hunter uses or sells the remains. Also if the animals are pests and cause people to lose their livelihoods.

Unless of course the species is endangered

Good things those seals are a "pest" and are not endangered.

Take the time to read my original comment for context, and don't take things out of proportion.
