Look out for seals

Help stop seal shooting in Scotland

Please add your name below to show that you are joining the thousands of people who want the Scottish Marine Bill to provide better protection for Scotland's seals.

Advocates for Animals has been campaigning for this Marine Bill to ban the shooting of seals during their breeding seasons. As it stands the Bill might allow this killing.

In early 2010 the Bill will be considered by the full Scottish Parliament.

We are campaigning for the Parliament to amend the Bill to prohibit the killing of seals during their breeding seasons. This would stop orphaned seal pups from starving to death.

Now more than ever seals need your help. Thank you.

Gordon Buchanan“I find it deplorable that current legislation allows the shooting of seals during the breeding season. A bullet may kill an adult seal outright but for any still dependent pup their ultimate death is preceded by starvation and untold misery.”

Chris Packham“Our seals have a tough enough time as it is...pollution, disease, disturbance – all the unfortunate hazards of the modern environment, without being shot during their breeding season. These wonderful animals must not be victims of our own mismanagement of the seas.”
