Media Advisory/2012 Commercial Seal Hunt: IFAW Visual Assets and Team Available
Editors: Still images and broadcast quality video b-roll related to Canada's commercial seal hunt are available and seal hunt observers are available for media interviews.
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 04/09/12 -- What: IFAW (International Fund for Animal Welfare - ) has a team of observers who will document the 2012 commercial seal hunt in Canada. The Total Allowable Catch (TAC) has been set by Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans at 400,000 harp seals. It is expected that a significant portion of the TAC will be taken this year, since the provincial Newfoundland government has loaned private Norwegian seal processor, Carino, $3.6 million in bailout money to purchase seal skins from hunters and put them into stockpile.
Where: Northern Gulf of St Lawrence and the Front, Newfoundland, Canada
When: The commercial seal hunt in the Northern Gulf region is expected to begin on April 10 and the Front is expected to open on March 12.
IFAW (International Fund for Animal Welfare) was established in 1969 and its founding campaign was in opposition to Canada's commercial seal hunt. IFAW has more than 40 years of experience raising awareness, documenting and opposing the cruel commercial hunts for seals in Canada and around the world.
