Montreal chef who offers seal dishes threatened after GG ate marine mammal - Yahoo! Canada News

A Montreal chef is being criticized because he serves seal meat at his restaurant. Many people are trying to get the seal hunt banned in Canada, calling it cruel. What do you think? Is it okay to eat seal meat?

If you go to look at it that way, even eating chicken is wrong, even though, you breed chicken for that purpose.

Not worse than having lamb.. And I love lamb, so hey.

Yeah, it's sad and stuff... but meh, we're animals, they're animals. Animals eat animals.
I don't feel guilty..

I feel the same way. I don't feel guilty eating any animal...every living thing needs to eat other living things to survive, be it plant or animal. I think people are upset over the seal hunt because seals are cute...but chickens and pigs and cattle are killed in much crueler ways and almost no one has a problem with eating them.

Come on! Piglets & Chicks are cute too! How can you say that they got upset because Seals are cute? Tomorrow, if the Dinosaurs were to be resurrected, they would think that your kids are cute & your neighbours! How would you feel?
Ofcourse, this is a hypothetical statement! Pun intended.
