Anyone who buys a fashion item made from seal pelts should be required to look at this photograph first!
We have to end all global markets for seal products. Please lobby your MEP if you haven't already done so.

'The European Parliament has called for a full European Union ban on harp and hooded seal products, a move that will see one of the biggest markets for seal pelts close. The European Commission has committed to undertaking a study on the humane aspects of the hunt, the results of which will provide the foundation for the legislation.
Many individual countries have also taken action. Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Austria, Italy, Luxembourg, Croatia, Panama and Mexico have all either banned seal products or announced their intention to do so. They join the United States, which has prohibited seal product trade since 1972.
There is overwhelming support for the bans from the European public.'
