Baby seals are not hunted and haven't been for about 20 years. The nice pictures of whitecoats that you see are old pictures. The seal hunt that everyone seems concerned about is (and has been) traditionally done in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. There are no Inuits there but there are Indian and White fishermen who are licenced to hunt.

Actually I shold hold off on that a little bit. 2 years ago a whitecoat was killed after a World Wildlife Fund employee ran over one by accident.

That's why I asked if they were really killing seal pups in Namibia or if it was just some hype.
