Canada to Protect Seals From Gulf of St Lawrence Hunt
Ottawa announced a sharp cutback on seal hunting this spring in the Gulf of St Lawrence and a 40 percent drop in the Labrador catch. The plan bans aircraft and ships from the gulf, limits Labrador catch to 150000 pelts, and allows shore operations for smaller vessels. Fisheries Minister Jack Davis stressed the move is a one year conservation step, while opponents argue it capitulates to pressure groups and threatens fisheries. The plan follows recommendations from an advisory committee and signals possible future moratoriums on east coast sealing.
