Help protect seals and keep all animals safe.

Grey seal hunt on Hay Island.

Rebecca Aldworth/HSI 2011

April 2024: Canada’s annual commercial seal hunt is underway off Canada’s East coast. Please help animals now.

Every year, tens of thousands of baby seals, the majority not even three months old, are killed during Canada’s annual commercial seal slaughter—chased, clubbed, shot, impaled on hooks and skinned for their fur. This year, some Canadian government and sealing industry officials are calling for the kill levels in Atlantic Canada to be as high as 600,000.

Your donation today will go toward our work to close global markets for seal products to reduce the demand for seal fur, expose this tragedy to the world with the horrific footage we’ve documented as evidence, commission scientific studies to counter industry misinformation, educate the public about the violence of commercial sealing in an effort to end it once and for all and protect animals around the world from cruelty.

Please make a gift today to help baby seals and so many other animals, including those killed for the wildlife trade, cruelly used for entertainment, trapped in laboratories, raised on dog meat farms and so much more.
