Canada seal hunt interruped by deadly boat accident

It is not just that animals make the world more scenic or picturesque.
The lives of animals are woven into our very being - closer than our own breathing -
and our souls will suffer when they are gone

The annual Canadian seal hunt was marred Saturday by a boat accident in the ice-covered
Gulf of St. Lawrence that killed members of the boat's crew, officials said.

"There have been fatalities," fisheries department spokesman Michel Plamondon said,
but a precise casualty figure was not available.

Canada set the limit for this year's harvest at 275,000 harp seals,
5,000 more than the previous year.
Some 800 seals were killed Friday, Plamondon said.

Prayers for the families of the dead and prayers that this barbaric custom will end.

Help Stop the SEAL HUNT


If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of
compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men
- St. Francis of Assisi -


We can help Nigel Barker and the HSUS work to stop the cruel and senseless seal hunt forever.

To see how many hours until the slaughter begins,
and how we can all help the baby seals CLICK HERE!

Live camera in Africa. Watch the animals..

~ If all the beasts were gone, men would die from a great loneliness of spirit, for whatever happens to the beasts also happens to the man. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the sons of the Earth ~

A great advantage of the Internet is being able to see images from far away as they happen. I'm on some great message boards, mostly about cats *grin* and this camera in Africa was posted. It's fun to listen and watch.

OK, I know what you are thinking, the Baby Seal and a post about Africa??
I love the Baby Seal picture, and it does go perfectly with my quote today!
