Well I actually picked up a paper the other night and started reading it, then I came across an article that just made me so upset, Caribbean monk seal is extinct, Human hunting for research, food and blubber has left the population unsustainable, there has not been a sighting since 1952, A biologist for NOAA's Fisheries said the species is the only seal to become extinct from human causes.
My question is why were we hunting this seal for research and blubber, I can understand the food issue a little, not much but a little, but research and for the blubber thats just wrong IN MY OPINION, why research? what could we possibly learn by putting them through that, and blubber in products has been banned from most countries for yrs, so why was there such a high demand? and why would we drive them to extnction? couldn't we have regulated ourselves? and the biggest question of all seems to be why does man have such a driven force to kill ? especially in the way they kill seals clubbing them to death. there is no sport in that its just awful. and my last question is why do we have to destroy so much, to have so little?
