Please stop culling the seals for animals have the right to live as we humans do.

That's just great. The justification for mass slaughter of animals is because they...eat?

Actually, LISA NESTE, in this context, cull=barbaric, mindless slaughter of innocent, harmless animals.

Thank you for the post, Agnes.

It's encouraging to see so much attention paid to this topic. Thank you, wherever and whoever you are.

Namaste
